The world around us overflows with beauty: the rich, verdant, musky depths of the emerald forests, the enchanting meadow's swaying grasses, the salty spray of the rolling sea, the soil and clay of the rocky, mineral filled earth. Making their way amid this wonder are endless living beings: animals, birds, insects, sea creatures. And perhaps most prominent to us, the human beings we share our lives with in our intricate human civilizations.

We interact with this miracle through the equally intricate landscape laying within: our hearts and minds. For meditators, who aspire to live beautifully, how these two worlds meet is of great interest. All experience, be it inner or outer, is seen as an opportunity for deep love and deep understanding. This morning of meditation is for all people, a chance to converse and meditate in a natural, beautiful way.
