Awakening Your Mind and Soul

Awakening Your Mind and Soul

Vedic Cultural Society of East Anglia (Hindu Temple)

Let go of physical chains and visit the Hindu Temple, on the bank where the river Bure flows always to the sea. Beyond the peaceful veranda is a changing landscape, where life moves through perpetual circles of transmutation. Abandoned by humans, old structures shelter new life. Owls roost on rafters in crumbling wind pumps, birds call and breezes whisper through swaying grasses where reedmace dances to a wide horizon.

Find the Temple’s meditation marker, an invitation to pause, practice yoga or spend time in mindful contemplation. Let your thoughts flow like the river. According to Hindu belief, all beings go through the cycle of samsara: birth, life, death, and rebirth. A continuous existence of perpetual transmutation.

Bring your awareness to this moment of living. It is yours to savour now, never to be repeated. A grain of time, a heartbeat, a breath. Share your peace with all you love. Care for yourself and humanity. Perspectives change, problems shared can be problems solved. Restful nights heal difficult days, light shines from darkness. The morning will come. Turn to the east. The sun is rising, bathing your body in golden light, beginnings and fresh hope. Each day is a new chance to give, share and care. Dare to be kind. The great universe is beyond understanding; we are all its children. Embrace the wild wind. Taste the sea’s salty essence. Arctic easterlies blow in over the marsh, exhilarating air from the far Siberian steppes. All things are connected. You are welcome here. Namaste.
