Nature

Extract from Eckhart Tolle famous book- Stillness Speaks :

" When walking or resting in nature, honor that realm by being there fully. Be still. Look. Listen. See how every animal and every plant is completely itself. Unlike humans, they have not split themselves in two. They do not live through mental images of themselves, so they do not need to be concerned with trying to protect and enhance those images. The deer is itself. The daffodil is itself. "

" All things in nature are only one with themselves but also one with the totality. They haven't removed themselves from the fabric of the whole by claiming a separate existence: " me" and the rest of the Universe. "

So the next time, take the opportunity to observe while you are talking a nature walk or retreat.
