The fire of our anger is burning America. When the heart can no longer contain it, the flames burst out into the environment, endangering many innocent creatures.
Each of us can water this fierce desiccation at its inner root, and transform this heat into the healing balm of compassion. Americans have deep interior work to do, and if they don't do it, external works will be fruitless. Because we will continue to embody the insatiable anxieties and cravings that drive us to consume, waste, and ravage our planet.
Gaze into this beautiful Christic-flower, its softness, its melting of sharp edges and merging of opposites, its gentle fragrance. Let it be a mandala of your true nature, your wisdom heart of forgiveness.
