Juxtaposition is the basic formal operation of synchronicity, in the words of Erik Davis, quoted in the description of this video from Jason Silva’s Shots of Awe series. It points to the space where we create serendipity, the space we associate with creativity.
We have all heard stories about love. In whatever form it comes, love can encourage us, even during the heaviest times. But what is love, really? We often hear loving phrases passed around such as “unconditional love” and “loving-kindness,” but it is not always clear how these universal notions of love can be applied to our everyday lives amidst the challenges, hardships, and emotions we all face. As we begin to look more closely at what is meant by words like loving-kindness and unconditional love, we come to better understand what these notions of love refer to and how they relate to our mindfulness practice.
