The Path of Kindness

The path of kindness: 

somewhere along my long and happy spiritual journey, without any conscious thought, I decided to just be kind, to make kindness my only true practice, and that awakening to my heart center and extending love from here was more than enough for me. I don't have to go any further, there's no greater depth of consciousness - this is it, the end point, as enlightenment itself, for me at least, is found right here - 

a simple wish to be kind to others. 

I love Ramana Maharishi's answer to the question on how we are to treat others, his replay was a gentle smile and a reminder that there really are no others. It's a beautiful testament of our united consciousness, one being in the guise of many. This is an awakened heart center, hridaya in yogic terms, and it is the realm of love that extends itself outward to the world. 

it's our connection.

or more truly so....simply who we are.

but even this apt description isn't really needed - I am kind because my heart calls for me to be so, it's my easiest and surest path through life, and it fills me with great joy to just be alive and allowed to continuously express it. 

it's who I am.

and as there are no others...

it's who we are.
