I am in relationship. with the gravity of this planet. And each of my cells knows this fact. They have a collective intelligence that understands gravity, not just from the point of view of my muscles and my balance, but from the perspective of their own individual being. And each one of the cells and molecules in my body aligns itself in obedience to this force. So, I am also invited to participate in the sensation of this alignment. I come close to the breathing. And I see the way in which it is also aligned in obedience to the gravity of the planet. And I come to rest in this place with an intention to form a deeper and more lasting relationship with this sensation. My attention is directed much deeper into my body now, into the roots of my being. And I begin to realize that obedience to the gravity of the earth is aligning me in a new orientation so that I can sense the magnetic nature of attention and the way that it attracts all of being to exist around a vertical pole of consciousness. The top of the head becomes much more transparent and open to receive this force which flows into being. And much subtler forces which touch the roots of real feeling begin to awaken in my body as a higher form of sensation. Here in stillness is where life gathers itself in order to remember how to be and I see the way in which being is connected to the vibration at the root of all life throughout the cosmos through this action of gathering and concentrating the attention. I am here in relationship to a different energy, and throughout my body and my soul, throughout my sensation and my attention. This is always the first thing to which I owe attention and obedience.
