Santa Clara Meditation Living – Winter’s Light
Imagine the warm lights of winter.
And if only Christmas tree lights come to mind.
Then take a look at the world illuminated by Nature’s light.
Because ‘light’ exists, the world reveals every beautiful shape and form.
Because ‘light’ exists, we can see the world in all its glory.
Even though people may only perceive winter as frigid and bleak,
“light” is always there to brighten the world.
Even at the moment we completely forget about ‘light,’
the omnipresent ‘light’ continues to exist for us.
Daybreak
With the dawning of a new day comes
the birds’ flight.
With the dawning of a new day comes
the dew that glistens in the sunlight.
That day has broken means
the darkness has been lifted.
Darkness is blindness.
Man thinks he exists since he is living.
But the life he lives is not a life at all,
for it is not righteous.
Man is blind,
for his eyes are wide shut.
His mind is the Universe,
but he cannot see it;
not knowing this,
he lives in an illusion.
Thus it is when the eyes of his mind are open
that man will be able to see the world as bright Light.
