Dear Jasmine,
Thank you so much for offering this peaceful practice- wow did it land at the right time for me!
Been really struggling with grumpy unsettledness and -yes- violent and aggressive thoughts, mostly at myself but also spilling over - then overcome by remorse at the micro macro madness of being unpeaceful yet yearning for peace in the world..... so it was wonderful to just sit. Actually - I even found it quite difficult at first to sit with my hands in prayer- i realised there was so much tension in my hands and shoulders!!!! The slow soothing cadre of your voice pulled me back every time i drifted and gradually i arrived right there in the moment.
It´s so good to renew vows, to really think about what they mean - i hope i can carry this feeling sensation throughout the day and onwards.
Really looking forward to the rest of the season - thanks again.
Have a beautiful day!

Jasmine, this was deep. A real "examination of conscience". I have been in despair at the violence I read about in the world right now, but was failing to see the "himsa" in my own thoughts and words. This is where transformation begins, here in the individual heart. Thank you for this.

This was most needed for me as well. We are living in “interesting” times and it feels like the world is on fire. I’ve been grappling with my wildly fluctuating emotions through all of this. Your meditation reminds me that I have a choice as to how I can choose a practice of peace at any time. I’m so grateful for you and this platform and all of us practicing together to bring the light in. ❤️🙏🏻🕯️
