Stop. Take a breath. Pause. Feel the hum. Hear, the Universal Sound. Appreciate, if only for a moment, the excruciating beauty and profound expanse of the awareness that you are. Even if there is pain, even in the midst of confusion, on the edge of chaos .. there is a still, silent point, .. a window (at the very least) onto the truth of the One, that is.
