Simply Aware

A Master teacher wished to illustrate levels of awareness on the path to wisdom. He took five students to the edge of a lush, green forest and asked: “What do you see?”

The first student replied: “I see a lush, green forest.”

The second stated: “Yes, I see the forest, and many kinds of trees. I see at least seven varieties, may I study them?”

The third remarked: “The trees are beautiful, and I observe many kinds of wildlife. I see animals and birds, may I learn from them?”

The fourth said: “I see a symphony of life, the perfect ecosystem. Each plant and animal giving, and taking; cooperating to fulfill each others needs; sustaining harmonic balance. It’s a wondrous sight, may I sit and enjoy?”

The fifth, tears in his eyes, whispered softly: “I feel the Maker.”

Think of Nature

Nature.

Humankind’s original or natural condition.

I read the story of a Native American lad who watched his grandfather walk down to a cold, clear stream of water every morning and look into the forest. “Grandfather would stare through the morning mist into the forest for a long time, and when he turned to come back to the lodge his eyes were filled with tears.” At first the lad thought his grandfather was sad, but came to understand it was just the opposite. Tears of joy ran down his grandfather’s cheeks, at the wonderment of nature. Spend some time with nature, even if it’s at the Zoo. There is a quieting, calming, peaceful effect of being in the woods, surrounded by trees, flowers and other beauty. Sitting for awhile where you become a part of the greatness of all things.

“One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.”

William Shakespeare, Dramatist and poet
considered to be the greatest English playwright, 1564-1616
