TEA AND ZEN - THREADS

Threads is a contemplative audio offering from Meditation Sans Frontières, a sanctuary devoted to presence, remembrance, and the quiet radiance of being. These transmissions arise from lived experience — from grief that has softened into wisdom, from love that refuses to diminish, and from the sacred interior technologies of stillness and relational presence.

IT IS IN THE NOTHINGNESS THAT THE EVERYTHING IS FOUND

TEA AND ZEN - THREADS ·

2024/11/19

Out beyond ideasof wrong-doing and right-doing,there is a field - I'll meet you there.When the soul lies down in that grass,the world is too full to talk about.Ideas, language, even the phrase"each other"don't make any sense....RumiIt is in the silence within meeting the silence without, in that space out of time, all love is found, beyond even a whisper.

No one can keep us from carrying GodWherever we go.No one can rob His NameFrom our heart as we try to relinquish our fearsAnd at last stand — Victorious.We do not have to leave him in the mosqueOr church alone at night;We do not have to be jealous of tales of saintsOr glorious masts, those intoxicated soulsWho can make outrageous love with the Friend.We do not have to be envious of our spirits’ abilityWhich can sometimes touch God in a dream.Our yearning eyes, our warm-needing bodies,Can all be

Embracing the Path to Love and Peace

TEA AND ZEN - THREADS ·

2024/11/10

Life often challenges us with moments of anger, fear, and grief—emotions that arise from the primal belief that love is absent, or that we have become separate from the infinite, all-encompassing force that transcends time and space and is at the very core of all existence.But what if this grief, this feeling of isolation, is rooted in a profound misunderstanding? What if the absence of love we feel in certain moments is not an absence at all, but simply a disconnection from the truth that love has

THE CARTOON RABBIT

TEA AND ZEN - THREADS ·

2024/11/04

When I was a small child, I often felt adrift in a world that was far too big and complex for my understanding. Severe trauma shaped my early years, casting a dark shadow over my childhood and leaving me seemingly bereft of any solace. In the midst of this turmoil, I found an unexpected source of comfort: a cartoon caricature of a rabbit. This sticker, bright and whimsical, adorned the wall above the hook where I hung my jacket each morning before kindergarten, all those years ago.During those

‘I was dead, I came alive. I was tears, I became laughter. Love’s wealth arrived, And I became Everlasting fortune.’ -Rumi In the midst of life’s challenges, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed by suffering. Yet, beyond this turmoil lies a profound peace that exists within the hearts of all. This inner sanctuary is not a fleeting state; rather, it is a timeless presence of all LOVE eternal that has been with us all-ways.This peace, is a LOVE that permeates our very existence.

THE ENERGY BODY

TEA AND ZEN - THREADS ·

2024/11/02

Our energy body, manifesting at 528Hz the resonance of Love often referred to in holistic practices as the subtle body, plays a critical role in our fundamental well-being. This energetic framework akin to a fine mesh net surrounds and interpenetrates at the cellular level morphing into the nervous system body, and can influence our emotions, thoughts, and health deeply. Just as we maintain our physical hygiene, it's essential to cleanse our energy body to foster balance and vitality. It originates

EMBRACING THE UNKNOWN

TEA AND ZEN - THREADS ·

2024/11/01

We often cling to the illusion of control, believing we can dictate the outcomes of our experiences and relationships. However, as I reflect tonight—something that has become a recurring theme for me—it's clear that we truly have no control over the outcomes of any person, place, or thing. We can set our intentions with all our hearts, but once those intentions are voiced, it becomes essential to let them go and allow the natural course of events to unfold.This notion can be particularly

Life is governed by intricate patterns, dynamics, and laws that shape our experiences, guiding us through the interplay between our thinking minds and the wisdom of our hearts. These forces are not just personal; they resonate collectively, influencing how we connect with ourselves and each other.At the individual level, our thoughts and emotions create a tapestry of understanding and response.

I seem to have loved you in numberless forms, numberless times...In life after life, in age after age, forever.My spellbound heart has made and remade the necklace of songs,That you take as a gift, wear round your neck in your many forms,In life after life, in age after age, forever.Whenever I hear old chronicles of love, it's age old pain,It's ancient tale of being apart or together.As I stare on and on into the past, in the end you emerge,Clad in the light of a pole-star, piercing the darkness of

THE LAW OF RECIPROCITY...turning the other cheek.

TEA AND ZEN - THREADS ·

2024/10/21

Throughout history, many spiritual and philosophical traditions have emphasized a profound truth: when we harm another sentient being, we inevitably harm ourselves. This principle, often referred to as the Law of Reciprocity, underscores the interconnectedness of all life and the moral imperative to act with compassion.Therefore at its core, this law suggests that our actions, particularly those rooted in negativity or malice, reverberate beyond their immediate effects. When we inflict pain….whether
