The Practice Before The Practice

Thank you! Have been moved my many reflections on practice lately. From you, "There is always a practice before the practice; a sitting before the incomprehensible long enough to feel and sometimes understand the mystery each instrument and craft is designed to invoke." From Michael Meade, "Through a practice we become more genuinely established in ourselves, we gain an emotional seating, a place to dwell within ourselves. A genuine practice means loving something enough to be with it again and again in all the moods of our soul and in all the waves of emotion that can flow through us, body and soul." A bow to such ways of being with Life being with us.
