8/7/2019 Reflections on the Spirit of Dance
1/8
This writing comes from a meditation or'listening in stillness
and trust'. Compared tomost of what we encounter today it may
perhapsseem hard to read - for it can only be understoodby a
similar willingness to listen, to that in whichit is written. And
it attempts to share meaningsthat are difficult to convey in
concepts - though I
can only clothe such meanings in the concepts Ihave to hand in
order to write at all.
So I take a leaf out of Eckhhart Tolle's workand use a symbol :
- - to suggest 'pause andreflect' . For our thinking mind races
about in itsfiltering, comparing and pigeonholing - in a
getting of what it sees as useful or in warding offany sense of
threat to what it already identifieswith. But the heart in its own
trust can discern -or get a feel - even when the head does its
thing!
Dance can connect us with meaning, withdepth, connectedness, and
an innocence of
being that is delightful. The unfolding of the spiritof the
dancer in our life arises from a sense ofbeing called by the music
- but also from anongoing willingness to discard or move
beyondunwanted or outdated obstructions as they arebrought to our
awareness within a conscious andheart connected sense of our
dance.
