Luminous Being Shining Through

No matter what phenomena arise...

the pleasantness of visiting a friend,

the sting of fire ants biting my foot,

being in a hurry while standing in a long line at the store,

feeding pecans to the squirrels at the trail,

or enjoying a good book;

the luminosity of the basic state

shines through every experience.

The same Grace is present

regardless of the circumstances!

I am pure mind, the supreme source:
realize my nature
and all events that occur, whatever they may be,
shall be revealed as nothing other than me.
