Today marks the vernal equinox, at 6:44 am the Sun shone directly at the center band of our planet, the equator. Equinox means "equal night." The equinoxes occur at the points in Earth's annual orbit when the lengths of day and night are equal. Spring arrived in the northern hemisphere this morning, when the Sun crossed the celestial equator from south to north at the vernal equinox. Over the next three months, the Sun will travel farther north, bringing longer, warmer days north of the equator.

confident and optimistic dynamic, its a beautiful day, and a beautiful time and season we're entering.
All the religions of the world, while they may differ in other respects, unitedly proclaim that nothing lives in this world but Truth.
While reading a small pamphlet about death given to my family, before my grandmother passed away, it mentioned that wordlessness and touch become more important and meaningful ways of communicating when a person is living the last few days or weeks of their life. I love communicating in that way and I enjoy the times where much more can be transmitted deeply through silence, touch, and without using words, rather than language.
Quotes of the day:
So the single most vital step on your journey toward enlightenment is this: learn to disidentify with your mind. Every time you create a gap in the stream of mind the light of your consciousness grows stronger.

The essence of the Way is detachment. And the goal of those who practice is freedom from appearances.
