Stones divide, cells divide, our attention divides
until it is as single pointed as the nucleus of a single cell
and as multi-faceted as a beach full of stones.
I was interning at an organic farm and we were visiting another farm to learn about what farming was for them. This farm had a wildflower meadow that they mowed a meditation labyrinth into. The farm owner had us walk through the labyrinth slowly and with great mindfullness. Paying attention to the insects on the flowers, to the feeling of the breeze, to everything. When we got to the center of the labyrinth, we paused and meditated in stillness for a minute and then ran back out of the labyrinth and into the world. It was SO liberating! I can’t even describe the feeling. It was awe-inspiring. Imagine walking through a meditation labyrinth full of Mandala Stones.
I’m make make making a ton (literally) of Mandala Stones so I can collaborate with some local meditation labyrinths by creating temporary art installations. (More on how you can help next week!)
