Mini Meditation: Entangled

In physics, entanglement refers to particles that “have correlated attributes such that they act not as individual particles but as an inseparable whole.”

Within our meditation practice, I think we see entanglement on two levels:

First, our practice becomes entangled with our lived experience. Initially perhaps, our practice feels like this thing we do on our meditation cushion and then we go live our lives the other 23 hours and 50 minutes of the day. But slowly, slowly this practice tangles with our waking, walking moments and we feel more and more consciousness throughout our days.

Second, our meditation practice is entangled with other meditators across place and time. When we connect with other meditators, our practice becomes more enlivened. We receive the same support, warnings, and care as the mother trees share with the younger members of the forest. 

Join me for today’s mini meditation as we explore our own sense of entanglement.
