beach of time

buddha letters
the beach of time is a metaphor,
it is indeed a place where you can go in your mind.
most people find the source of water very comforting when looking for peace of mind in any form.
so the BEACH OF TIME
is a place of comfort,
therefore it is very easy to get to once you have learned how to quiet the mind of all distractions.
because once you arrive to this place of silence it becomes very scary for those who have never allowed their minds to be at peace.
your mind is a dark place once the distractions have disappeared.

darkness is scarey
let me bring comfort to you by saying:
remember that we too were made out of void,
void being darkness;
from which we were all created by our creator
he took the void and created form,
which then became the universe we know to be today,
he gave us life
out of darkness we came from our mothers womb.
so at what point did we learn to be afraid of the dark,
who made it scarey for us?

remember that when you get to that darkness,
remember that is where it all begins,
use the darkness to create beauty around you,
use the darkness to create the future exactly the way you want it.

back to the BEACH OF TIME
the water and the darkness is what we were created from
the mother earth, we find shape in the water of our mother's womb
the beach is the sand of time,
the ocean is the liquor of life
the blue skies and clouds are also of water
as we were created out of water, so are we water
without water and darkness we would not exist

these are the tools he gave us to use to create what we needed to survive
we need darkness, dampness from the ground in order to create food
we need water to keep moist,
so you ask where does the light come into this picture?
silly ole bear!!!
you are the light
therefore you have the BEACH OF TIME
