Thought of the Day: Divine Awareness By: Jamal Brown
As the dawn breaks, painting the canvas of the sky with hues of gratitude, let us ponder upon our Thought of the Day – ‘Awareness of the Divine by Gratitude through Thoughtfulness and Self-Reflection’.
In the silent sanctuary of our souls, where thoughts cascade like a river’s flow, there lies a divine spark. It whispers in the rustle of the leaves, sings in the symphony of birds, and dances in the rhythm of our hearts. This divine essence, invisible to the eyes but perceptible to the heart, is the sacred tapestry binding us all.
Thoughtfulness, a gentle breeze that stirs the still waters of our minds, implores us to listen, to observe, to feel. In the echo of silence, we find wisdom; in the dance of shadows, we find light; in the paradox of existence, we find unity.
Self-reflection, a mirror held up to our souls, reveals the divine within us. It strips away the layers of illusion, leading us beyond the realm of the tangible, into the heart of the ethereal. As Thich Nhat Hanh wisely expressed, “The real power of the Buddha was that he had so much inside him that he had no need to look outside.”
Gratitude, the golden key unlocking the door to divine awareness, transforms our perception. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity.
So today, let us bathe in the glow of thoughtfulness, gaze into the mirror of self-reflection, and wrap ourselves in the warm cloak of gratitude. Let us tune our hearts to the divine symphony that reverberates throughout the cosmos, reminding us that we are not mere spectators, but active participants in this grand cosmic dance.
