Budismo e Folhas

-
Há um princípio no Budismo que sugere tratar a vida como os sonhos e os sonhos como a vida (literalmente, trata-se de não fazer distinções entre os acontecimentos que ocorrem na vida e os acontecimentos que ocorrem nos sonhos... no fundo, essa é uma forma concreta de encantamento do mundo).
Hoje, ouvindo o cd Memória da Pele da Maria Bethânia, há uma música linda chamada "Salve as Folhas" (letra abaixo). Eu sinto que por meio das folhas é fácil exercitar o princípio budista de sonhos e vida, pois as folhas nos sonhos são lindas...
E na vida, de fato, também.

Salve As Folhas
Maria Bethânia
Composição: Gerônimo / Ildásio Tavares

Sem folha não tem sonho
Sem folha não tem vida
Sem folha não tem nada

Quem é você e o que faz por aqui
Eu guardo a luz das estrelas
A alma de cada folha
Sou Aroni

Cosi euê
Cosi orixá
Euê ô
Euê ô orixá

Sem folha não tem sonho
Sem folha não tem festa
Sem folha não tem vida
Sem folha não tem nada

Eu guardo a luz das estrelas
A alma de cada folha

Sou Aroni

It brings peace and awareness of our physical reality, our bodies, and the people and environments around us.  In the  CMLC ℠ perspective ,  Hematite is a related to the Earth Chakra and connects us to the peaceful ability to consent to reality as it is, clearing away our perfectionism. It belongs to the Trigonal Crystal System, and like all Trigonal stones, it also aligns our Crown Chakra.  For more information about the concept of grounded spirituality, there's a whole chapter about it in the bo...
