108 Walking Prayers #3
The 108 Walking Prayers Project, is about intention and practice. There are a total of 1o8 beads on my prayer necklace. I use my beads as a tool to repeatedly chant my prayers. When each prayer has come to the 108th bead, I stop and pay homage to where my prayer had come to an end. A photograph documents each prayer. It is quite simple, yet very hard. Then from there I allow the chants to transform into a poem. I hope you enjoy what I have to share.
Toeing the line between the new and the old.
Right toe, Left toe…
Breath…
Returning to the moment…
Finding the lost screws within myself…
The reflections of my journey thus far surrounds me…
Eternal love,
Dancing between the sky and the earth.
My feet are becoming stronger…
No longer do I walk aimlessly…
I walk with intention…
Body awake.
Body centered.
Mother Tree embraces me with her poetic leaves.
The daisy flower giggles in the grass.
And I breathe in the ecstasy of the present moment.
I am content.
The Chinese New Year dances with the lover’s holiday.
The future door is bright like a star.
No longer is it locked.
The city horizon embraces me at the intersection of Carmel and Lincoln.
May all of you be happy.
May all of you be free from suffering.
It’s our history that makes us who we are.
Savor each moment like it your last.
Do the things you always wanted to.
Breath…
And walk the line with pride.
