A Season For Nonviolence - Day 11, Feb 9: CONTEMPLATION

DAY 11 Feb. 9: The practice for today is CONTEMPLATION. The "law of action" states that everything we do - even everything we think, since our thoughts condition our behavior - has consequences; not "equal and opposite" as in physics, but equal and alike. Many sacred texts tell us some variation of "your thoughts shape your reality".

"The ultimate value of life depends upon awareness and the power of contemplation rather than upon mere survival." -Aristotle

Today: I take a moment to relax, breathe and let my mind be fed by what is good, beautiful, and peaceful. As I think, so I am! I will write down my thoughts and share them with others.
