Stillness pervades all. Beneath the ripples, the waves and
the turbulence on the surface, deep underneath is stillness that never moved,
was never a participant nor ever will be anything but what it is – stillness.
Neti Neti - not
this, not this – the only reality in a world of constant movement, the waves
and the ripples and the stir, the impermanence of everything which is transitory
and shifting, there is though only one truth, deep down beneath all that is
moving, it a stillness that never moved. Nothing brings us closest to this
truth than the constantly moving Ganga in Rishikesh.
Water is life; water is therapeutic. When we watch without
disturbance, water falling or moving, it brings our mind to stillness. Not like
it never was there, but because when the ripples of thought and waves of
upheavals rest, there is, and ever will be only stillness.
Be Watchful.
