Bay Area Satsang Meeting, March 8, 2015
Our conversation for this gathering will center on our own spiritual
practice, taking off from John Newell's
The Rebirthing of God.
Andy will be leading the session.
Newell writes:
Spiritual practice is not about self-important
seriousness. Rather, it is about doing something that Merton says
is both less serious and more serious—a Cosmic Dance in which we
discover that we do not have to take the lead. We cannot take the
lead for we do not know how to. But we can give ourselves to the
Dance. We can let go with abandon to it, to be carried by its
endless rhythm in a relationship that is deeper than our
consciousness can comprehend. But what is most serious about the
Dance is that each one of us is needed. There is a place in the
Dance of the Universe that no one else can take but each of us.
