Young boy weaves color in the light.
Week 1-/Chesed (LOVE)-Day 5/Hod (SPLENDOR)
“Mindfulness is enlightenment, understanding, compassion, liberation and healing. If we touch everything with mindfulness, the world will reveal itself in its full splendor.”
-Thich Nhat Hanh-
Beautiful colors in beautiful light are what I think of for the word splendor; peacock feathers and luxury fabrics. The colors we see it turns out are only the reflections of light. So light then is at the center of it all. Later when I was reading the words of my teacher Thay I decided that mindfulness can be the light. As this week is all about love I hope to let the love and light be mindfully woven together. Breathing in the light, breathing out the love. Splendid.
After nightfall on Wednesday:
BA-RUCH A-TAH ADO-NAI E-LO-HE-NU ME-LECH HA-OLAM
ASHER KID-E-SHA-NU BE-MITZ-VO-TAV VETZI-VA-NU AL SEFI-RAT HA-OMER.
Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the Universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments, and commanded us concerning the counting of the Omer.
Today is five days of the Omer.
