JANU: All along the path of awakening there emerges what some call ritual, but others call life patterns. The function of a life pattern is to ignore distraction and build or develop layers of depth of meaning of possibilities. Life patterns can be long standing, longer than sojourns, or seemingly instantaneous, for the flow of life, the evolution of creation, is not limited to any one pace. Life has unlimited diversity—countless unique properties, opportunities, changes—coexisting. Ritual can lead to its mindlessness. Living in the Now is a coordination of the form of life with all that has been and all that will be. See these journeys in the same way. Tradition, unending change, wisdom-gaining, and enrichment. Be at peace with all of this and more. Life is dynamic, eternal, and at peace. We are one. Namaste.
