One Minute Meditation – Reflection

 

Snow DayOne  Minute Meditations is an ongoing series of short videos, poems, and commentary intended as a meditation.  Offered as an opportunity to step back from your cyber routine and settle into a more natural rhythm, if only for a minute. 

Reflection

Another video from Brackett Pond in Harold Parker State Forest.  Meditation is often viewed as an opportunity to reflect on life, yourself, or some idea.  But we also want to consider other types of reflection.  In the video, we see the images of the trees and the clouds.  We have little trouble recognizing the mirrored images, but also see the little distortions that come from movement in the water.

Such is the nature of our mind.  When it is still, we can see clearly.  When it is shifting and moving our vision becomes distorted, we find it difficult to see things as they are.  We also become engaged by the distortion itself.

Take a moment to recall still mind and its clarity.
