Vide Domine afflictionem: 'Behold, O Lord, our affliction.'
In the
observation of pain is healing - not through resisting, trying to
change, or labeling our pain with thoughts, but through witnessing the affliction as energy, swept by breath.
Let your silence invoke the Witness, the hollow glowing core who
neither thinks, nor dreams, nor sleeps, but simply sees. Your very Being
is a vigil.
In awareness is
compassion; in compassion, transformation. And what if this is the end, your death?
Then yes, yes, even then! Embrace affliction with a pure naked beholding, and beholding itself will become the infinite light.
