Number Three.

There is something about jellyfish that I find incredibly comforting. I could watch them for hours as they contract and expand and let the water and the current take them in their new direction. So light and simple they exist as free-swimmers, without a brain or nervous system. Sometimes I think it would be nice not to think, just feel your surroundings as you came in to them and allow your body to react based on rhythms and frequencies picked up naturally through the skin. Like a dance. Like music. Something to think about, I guess.

  1. Jellyfish meditation...float, expand, contract...Be. One. With everything...

    Ah, yes...jellyfish meditation.
    Peanut butter & jelly fish
    ...wait a minute...damn chatterbox brain.
    Back to my jellyfish meditation.

    Aauuummmmm....

    No nervous system? I guess they don't worry too much about their jellyfish dreams, eh? Do they dream of peanut butter? Bread? No, likely not. That would be silly.

    Hard to keep focused on the meditation. Then again, it's the journey, not the destination, even with our spiritual practice...or for some, simply centering. Jellyfish music. Feel the jelly. Be the fish.

    BTW: Great photo.
