Life is Now

“If there is the slightest feeling of boredom, irritation, or lack in meditation or prayer, it is because we have left the eternal now and followed thought into the past or future.”

— Rupert Spira, The Heart of Prayer, p. 91

I love this quote because it reminds me I already have everything that’s needed in the present moment: There is peace, love, joy, fullness right here when I’m truly paying attention. The mind is never satisfied, is always seeking something other than the present moment – as if happiness could be found “out there” somewhere. But Yoga (“union”) reminds us we’re already One, already complete as is. All we need to do is recognize this Truth and enjoy it. Then live and love!
