What is it that has us all smiling at the end of a meditation evening, as in this photo taken earlier this summer? There is a mysterious synergy that happens when people come together to meditate. Somehow we all benefit from everybody else's mental focus and willingness to be here with whatever shows up in the simplicity of the inner space that opens up in meditation. It's not a space that we create, it's a space that we return back to from our forays into the endlessly busy world of perceiving, doing and thinking. This inner space is always there, inviting us into its stillness, simplicity, and beauty if only we take a moment to stop all outer and inner activity. You can do so by yourself, just by taking a few minutes, or a longer stretch of time, to sit, to breathe, to be still.
