Reflection

The Hush Sound has a beautiful song called, You are the Moon. When I was meditating this morning, it started playing in my head.

You don't see what you possess, a beauty calm and clear
It floods the sky and blurs the darkness like a chandelier
All the light that you possess is skewed by lakes and seas
The shattered surface, so imperfect, is all that you believe

I will bring a mirror, so silver, so exact
So precise and so pristine, a perfect pane of glass
I will set the mirror up to face the blackened sky
You will see your beauty every moment that you rise

The goal of meditation is reflection. Just like the moon reflects the sun, so we reflect God's image.

I started thinking about the difference between the reflection of a clear lake, and the reflection on choppy water and it occurs to me, the goal of meditation is a clear lake.

Selah.
