Floral Friday #140

　どなたかが世話している空き地のコスモスを見て、そろそろ散歩から帰ろうかなと思った。この季節は気を許すとあっという間に時が流れる。実際のところ、時間が早まったりすることなどあるはずもなく、日中の時間が短くなったということなのだろう。ついひと月前まで猛暑日だったということもあるかもしれない。真夏の暑さが秋分の日まで3ヶ月も続いて、このままずっと夏なのではないかと勘違いしていた間にも時は刻みつづけていたのだ。日没はもう17時になった。 　白とピンクに混じって、少し濃い色のコスモスや黄花コスモスもあって、思いのほか華やかな花壇は、風に揺られて楽しげだった。

Who do you pray to? Are you a pantheist like Samsaran?

Ultimately, prayer is contact with reality.

Prayer is about opening up. Psychologically, emotionally, attentively.

When we engage in prayer, we are emptying our hearts and minds. Then we make our hearts and minds available to receive.

It is Vulnerable. But also Venerable.

Knowing that we live in ignorance, prayer is a practice in which we touch the reality and allow reality to touch us. That reality may be called truth, divinity, awareness, or whatever.

Sometimes we ask for help when we pray. Healing, blessing, overcoming an obstacle, peace, whatever.

Sometimes we ask for guidance.

Sometimes we seek to share. Sharing our grief, our joy, our confusion. Through prayer, we may feel supported, celebrated, and re-oriented.

We may pray to buddhas, bodhisattvas, deities, gurus, or various spirits. Or we may pray to the indescribable reality from which no one and nothing is separate.

I do it all.

What I will say is that if done correctly, which means to say with the right balance of heart sincerity and openness of attention, it doesn’t matter to whom you pray. You will receive.

Above all, it is the listening for the answer and the willingness to accept it that will help you to recognize it when it arrives.

Much love.
