Walk Like a Mountain. Innen Ray Parchelo

Чтение книги онлайн.

СКАЧАТЬ non-Buddhist practitioners who promote walking practices based in other faith-traditions. The first of these is labyrinthist, Lauren Artress. Artress is an American writer, walker and Christian who has re-kindled the ancient Christian and Pagan practices associated with the labyrinth. She writes:

      My lack of success with sitting meditation motivated me to find a more effective way to handle my chaotic mind. Walking – moving my body – drains of a great deal of excess energy. I can begin to slow down my thought process, become conscious of my breath and allow my awareness to rest in my body.

      The Sacred Path Companion, Artress, p. 5

      She found walking in the highly structured environment of ancient labyrinth patterns was the key for her. For her it is ‘a physical portal’ into a symbolic realm and a psychological space. It is ‘a watering hole for the spirit’. She lists the benefits of labyrinth walking as:

      …quieting the mind…nurturing the capacity to reflect… engendering inner spaciousness…enlivening the body… integrating mind/body/spirit…and the realization that we all share the planet.

      Companion, Artress, p. 25

      Her recommendations for preparing and practicing have noticeable deviations from advice here; however, her explanation of this unique practice, suggestions for meditative exercises and generous welcoming of all, make her worth reading. We will return to her and labyrinth walking in Chapter 9 – New Walking Forms.
