This simple phrase, associated with St. Francis, is not a question to be answered intellectually, but an invitation into deeper awareness. It opens us to a way of being present to life as it is, without needing to define or resolve it.
We begin by settling into stillness, allowing the body to relax and the breath to find its natural rhythm. From there, the practice moves into open awareness, gently receiving whatever arises in the present moment.
