Christopher Hansard:[ kindness]

if you want to change the world

be kind

kindness is the most radival act there is,

for it is an act of conscious choice

and selfless thought

kindness changes the world far more than a thousand revolutions

and brings humility and humanity into all our lives

Christopher Hansard:[ in solitude]

when the world around seems too much

look inwards

slightly

for there is solitude within the crush

of noisy thoughts, emotions and unresolved imaginings

whatever pain that you know

look beneath it

for there is solitude

for what is solitude?

it is the communication of all your doubts with your inner love

your wisdom with your breath

your worries fears and anguish soothed

by listening to your inner voice

which in solitude

speaks

Christopher Hansard:[ inner world]

Your

inner

world

spins

slowly

on

the axis of

your attachments

each rotation

closes,

or opens a view

into your

Self

see how attachment

makes the mist

that your call

your life

good, bad,

inbetween

all rotate

on

attachment

Christopher Hansard:[ you and nature]

The natural world dwells deep with your emotional and psychological nature, within your body, intellect, instinctual awareness and all your habits, for every tree that is wantonly cut down in the wild so is a little part of us all. Diminish nature and its resources and so mankind is diminished. Nature is the underlying foundation of all our aspects of our well being, you and nature are the same experience.

Christopher Hansard: [ The Prayer Cycle]

There dwells within your life and every life, the prayer cycle. It is that process of  consciousness that occupies everything we are, do and feel, hate, love and are bored with.

Even without us knowing it, the prayer cycle continues, the prayer cycle is wordless has no sound, does not praise any god or humankind, but actualises itself through the experiences that make us who we are and gives the gift of dissatisfaction and the desire for knowing. If you stop for a time, you can feel the prayer cycle going on within you and all living beings, some slower, some faster, some louder some so quiet as you think nothing is there, but the prayer cycle is everywhere and everything.

only

one word

Christopher Hansard:[ the path to your Self]

there is a

path to your

Self

it is not straight

but winding

for it occupies

acts of randomness

and a myriad of thoughts

but if you look

gently but constantly

you can see the path

its edges covered by the

overgrowth of life

and then once you know it is there

it clears and shows you the way

and to understand love

you need

to love the life you have

to love the life you have

is the bedrock

of all loving

Christopher Hansard:[ the nature of nature]

the nature of nature

is to express itself

as information

fragments spliced by time,

cooked by space

offered up for its own delight

the nature of nature

is to be

You
