Monday Meditation: Blades of Grass in the Ocean of Consciousness

Enjoy this recording of a past Monday Meditation where we explore the interconnectedness of our lives within the universe. Whether it’s the people around you, the lush green grasses of the Midwest, or the rolling yellow hills of Northern California, connectedness begins with noticing. To illustrate this, today we’re going to use the mantra, “Aham Brahmasmi,” which loosely translates to, “I am a drop of ocean of consciousness,” or, as I liken it to, being blades of grass. On the one hand, we are all like individual blades, standing and swaying in the wind. On the other hand, we are rooted in the same soil.
