Tiny toads hop on moistly gleaming terracotta.  There was a shower in the night, and for the first time in two sweltering weeks the airstream flowing into the sanctuary is cool.  Well, it’s cooler than skin temperature and that feels heavenly.

‘I’ soothes itself with fresh breezes,
delights itself with the golden dappled dawn,
amuses itself with bird-gossip and highjinks,
scribbles its way across a blank page…

‘I’ is Awareness incarnate,
‘I’ is the eye through which we see the world
and at the same time It is the world appearing.
What else can be said?
