Contemplative Reading

Part 5 Integration of Contemplative Attitude: Deepening and Expanding the Mind

Now, for a few days, release the stories and the dialogue. Turn back to the experiences of body and to a more total receptivity. Move into stillness and rest in your own immediate experience. Relish any time you have for quiet and uncluttered self-intimacy. Being with the breath, the body, stillness, and with unfolding experience.

Commit to the process. Deepen your wisdom by continued personal contemplation. Remember also that even in silence we are relating to others. In fact, silence is an essential element in any possiblity of awareness of our connectedness.
