A mantra on Peace, Wholeness, and Harmony

Meditate on self, world, and responsibility -

 

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in
my heart) i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling)
                                  i fear
no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)

In this meditation, let's reflect on the challenges you've endured and overcome throughout a life well-lived. We'll do that not only to grieve and let go, but moreso to acknowledge the work that went into surmounting obstacles and the strength and resilience you gained through the challenges. (Based on Genesis 15:10)
