Meditation Gardens
This picture was taken at the meditation gardens in Leucadia, CA. It was such a relaxing place with koi ponds overlooking the ocean. As explained by Walter Lubeck in his article, Reiki and Meditation, "[i]n Zen this state of mind is related to a picture of a pond, untouched by the wind, so the water is absolutely calm and therefore able to mirror the sky. Only the completely peaceful mind can act as a mirror for the divine. When you meditate,... you have chosen to encounter the divine." Just by meditating in a quiet place, you are able to connect to yourself and to your surroundings. Take a moment today to find your "Meditation Garden" to sit quietly and reach the stillness within.
