“When the faith is strong enough, it is sufficient just to be. It’s a journey towards simplicity, towards quietness, towards a kind of joy that is not in time.”

— Ram Dass

A Different Breath

“The Tortoise and the Hare, Revisited”  |  Anthony Satori

“Truly to sing, that is a different breath.”

— Rilke

The breath used in singing does indeed seem to be a different breath, by its very nature. It shares its essence, it seems to me,  with yoga breathing (pranayama), embodying the same kind of mind-body connection that this spiritual practice aspires to attain. It is the breath of life, of love, and of connection. It is a breath that holds a deeper creative resonance, as referred to in the ancient scriptures and mystic texts. It is a breath that comes not just from the body, but from the heart, from the soul, and from the spirit.

“Walking on Water”  |  Anthony Satori

If you are a biologist, you see variations of life everywhere.  If you are a chemist, you see chemical reactions everywhere.  If you are an artist, you see beauty everywhere.  We choose our filters and we cultivate our lenses, and what’s amazing is the Universe seems perfectly content to accommodate our expectations.

So choose your filters carefully — they play a significant role in the creation of your world.

The Tao of Happiness

“Like Water”  |  Anthony Satori

Embrace life with gratitude and joy.  Seek beauty and goodness in every moment.  The Tao of Happiness is not concerned with grasping at preconceived notions, but rather with finding the Flow, like water, and immersing oneself in it with enthusiasm and calm.

Tree of Light

“Tree of Light”  |  Anthony Satori

“The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.”

— Aristotle

Trees and flowers have a deep thirst for light.  Light is their food, their nourishment, their essential source of life.  So whenever you see a thriving tree or flower — even if it is hidden under the dark of night, or enfolded in shadows — it is, in reality, filled to the edges with the life-giving energy of light.
