Faced with barren moonscape and exhausted in the mid day heat
we make our way...
minds heavy with doubt.
i do my best to stay afloat...
Left foot infront of right
inhale
exhale
upwards towards the saddle. going up to go down.
om mani padme hum
om mani padme hum
om mani padme hum
this mala mantra softens my face
slowing the mind race
clams and clarifies
keeping you there in the presence of grace.
om mani padme hum
I focus on my breathe, and bring my awareness to my feet
engaging the energy beneath my step
I feel the earth. each rock. each grain of sand
a walk this barren moonscape
barren desert
the heat aggrevates me
lips dehydrated
sigh...i go inside and de-attach from these thoughts.
i then invite the breathe to cool me
ah, exhale.
each step with the land, with those whom walked before me.
I gaze up, blue sky framed by clouds.
crossing over now, gazing up
only to look down.
