We're Back, ever new as each Moment Arrives · Zaran the Gardener, planting seeds of & nourishing our Soul with mindfulness

• 0:00
  Speaker: Good morning.
• 0:01
  Speaker: Well, I haven't been here very regularly in the last couple weeks, and I don't really have any excuses for it because there are no excuses from your own self-improvement.
• 0:13
  Speaker: And frankly, I've been doing it on my own, but in an environment where I felt uncomfortable to spend a couple of hours every morning to make a podcast, to share, and to help me as well.
• 0:35
  Speaker: And so now I'm home.
• 0:38
  Speaker: I just got back in at 11:30 last night, and here I am raring to go.
• 0:46
  Speaker: So that's an accomplishment in itself.
• 0:50
  Speaker: Being in a comfortable posture and undisturbed are important criteria for one to be in a mood, feeling an ambiance of wanting to delve deeper into one's own being, to have a greater understanding, and to foster a greater sense of virtuosity about whom and what we are, because these are the things that help us gain a sense of perspective on not only ourselves, but our loved ones, our friends, and our greater families, our countries, our world.
• 1:39
  Speaker: So it is here where we begin.
• 1:43
  Speaker: Being here.
• 1:48
  Speaker: I am here.
• 1:50
  Speaker: When we say this phrase, I am, who is it that is here saying these words?
• 1:59
  Speaker: Thinking about this, thinking about a Homo sapien with a tongue in their mouth, and cheeks, and teeth, and vocal cords, taking these kinds of basic physiological aspects of our being not for granted, not just mouthing the words, and allowing them to progress through our throat and up and out through our mouths, but to contemplate what we're saying.
• 2:42
  Speaker: I am a beginning, a glimmer of awareness, of awakening.
• 2:51
  Speaker: It is in this light these words are spoken, not as a responsibility, not as a means of just eliciting a sense of success that I have said these words.
• 3:06
  Speaker: Greater still to evoke in one's own being as the words are vibrating throughout one's body, a tingling, a beginning of self-awareness.
• 3:25
  Speaker: I am here now.
• 3:29
  Speaker: We are bodies, minds, creatures, Homo sapiens, loved ones, participants of and of the family of mankind.
• 3:45
  Speaker: I am here now.
• 3:48
  Speaker: We've covered the basics.
• 3:54
  Speaker: We've arrived.
• 3:56
  Speaker: Being here, aware, beginning to consider whom, what we are, where when now a bundle of miracles.
• 4:14
  Speaker: We've already begun to have a sense and leading towards this self-realization.
• 4:22
  Speaker: Because this is what we're doing.
• 4:26
  Speaker: We are bringing an illumination of our own sense of concentration and focus upon our own beings.
• 4:37
  Speaker: I am here now, a bundle of miracles, allowing these words, this one short sentence with two parts, to begin to raise a sense of awe in one's own being.
• 5:00
  Speaker: Maybe even bringing a sense and a wetness to one's eyes, tears swelling up in one's own eyes in awareness, in awakening, in becoming more alert.
• 5:19
  Speaker: We have a gift given to us when we are conceived, when we are born, when we have a chance to wake up day by day, taking nothing for granted, but just looking with a sense of objectivity, of heightened awareness, at just what and whom, where we are.
• 5:54
  Speaker: How lucky I am here now, a bundle of miracles.
• 6:03
  Speaker: Said with one's heart, reverberating through one's soul, through one's body.
• 6:16
  Speaker: Because your soul is part of your body, it's not something you need look for, it is something we always have.
• 6:25
  Speaker: It arrives in our consciousness when we focus and concentrate on these aspects of our being.
• 6:32
  Speaker: It is a part of our being, it is not our ego, as it is thousands of years of experience that has gone into making us and what we have been fortunate enough to add to ourselves during our lifetimes.
• 6:55
  Speaker: And that's what self-realization is about.
• 6:59
  Speaker: That's what mindful meditation's purpose is to further broaden and heighten one's own self-improvement, one's education.
• 7:15
  Speaker: I am here now, a bundle of miracles, to do this and to remember also, because we are here vibrating with life, breathing.
• 7:33
  Speaker: In this engine, we call ourselves pumping, oxygenated, energized blood.
• 7:43
  Speaker: As we say this one sentence, remembering these things, these aspects of our creaturehood, of whom we are.
• 7:56
  Speaker: Humbled, humbled by the immensity of what we are beginning to conceive, not only within the context of our individual selves, you and me, but in every aspect we might imagine or visualize, or if you like, pinch oneself.
• 8:37
  Speaker: Humbled by the immensity of creation, all of it, everything, everywhere, beginning where inside oneself.
• 8:51
  Speaker: Thankful.
• 8:54
  Speaker: Thankful for just being able to have these thoughts of being able to communicate, share, participate.
• 9:10
  Speaker: And not just in a ten minute mindful meditation, but in one's life, in one's opportunity for self-improvement.
• 9:24
  Speaker: This is the point of this statement, of these three statements.
• 9:31
  Speaker: I am here now.
• 9:33
  Speaker: A bundle of miracles, humbled by the immensity of creation, and thankful.
• 9:48
  Speaker: I'm going to keep it short.
• 9:51
  Speaker: The music is continuing for another minute.
• 9:55
  Speaker: Please ponder and welcome back.
