Meditation on the ONE who Beats the Heart

TEA AND ZEN - THREADS ·

2025/12/04

The One Who Beats the HeartA guided meditation for those listening beyond the breath. Let the body be still. Let the breath soften. And for a moment… do nothing at all. Let the silence rise up from beneath you. Let it settle around your shoulders, like a robe made of dusk. Feel your heart. Not with your hand — but with your awareness. With your presence. As if listening to something ancient and holy within the cave of your chest. Let this truth return: I do not beat this heart. It beats within me —

Awake awhile.It does not have to be Forever, Right now. One step upon the Sky’s soft skirt Would be enough. Hafiz, Awake awhile. Just one True moment of Love Will last for days. Rest all your elaborate plans and tactics For Knowing Him, For they are all just frozen spring buds Far, So far from Summer’s Divine Gold. Awake, my dear. Be kind to your sleeping heart. Take it out into the vast fields of Light And let it breathe. Say, “Love, Give me back my wings. Lift me, Lift me nearer.” Say to the sun

There Is No Death of the Eternal

TEA AND ZEN - THREADS ·

2025/11/30

My work with those who are dying is simple, quiet, and deeply human. I sit beside people in their final days not to guide them anywhere, but to accompany them as they remember what has always been true: that they are loved, that they are not alone, and that the passage ahead is nothing to fear. I offer presence more than words, listening more than teaching, a gentle hand more than any doctrine. In the stillness of those hours, something sacred reveals itself — a softening, an unwinding, a return to

Behind the Masks: One Heart, Many Faces

TEA AND ZEN - THREADS ·

2025/11/26

This episode explores how we hide behind identities — race, nation, religion, gender, and history — and act as if those costumes define us. Through poetic reflection, it shows that beneath every mask there is the same breath, the same longing to belong, and a shared consciousness. Fear and division are revealed as defenses of a fragile self, while love is presented as the true, unifying citizen. In the quiet between heartbeats a whisper calls you home, you are not broken you are becoming. These

May a small circle of safety find you, even if it is only the space of one breath.May the night be gentle around you, and may something quiet inside remind you that you are still here, still held by the same life that beats in every heart. May you feel, even for a moment, the soft presence that has never abandoned you— the one that lives beneath fear, beneath grief, beneath the sound of a world that has forgotten itself. May your own courage return to you in waves, unexpected and tender, and may

I....Love makes no judgements its has no preferences II...Love does not wound us—only the belief that we stand apart from it does. Love itself never harms; it is our forgetting of love that aches. When I speak of Love, I don’t mean sentiment or preference. I’m pointing to the quiet, radiant presence at the heart of all things — the living intelligence that holds and moves through us, beyond grasping or control. It isn’t an emotion to chase, but a reality to

Companion of Presence

I volunteer to sit with those who are dying—individuals without family or friends—at a few hospitals in Seattle. I offer a quiet, steady presence for those who might otherwise take their final steps alone. By the time I am asked to attend, they are usually in comfort care and appear unconscious, yet over time I have become acutely aware that something in them still meets me. Beneath the surface of the body, we enter a subtle field of consciousness together—a quiet, spacious awareness where presence

No control. We have no control over outcomes of anything. No matter how hard we try, life unfolds according to its own mysterious intelligence. We may hold an intention, a vision, or a heartfelt desire for how something might turn out, but the actual unfolding is never in our hands. The river of life moves as it will. Our task is not to control its course, but to bring sincerity, clarity, and love to how we move within it. Intention is our offering. Outcome is grace. In the quiet between heartbeats
