Blue Heron
Depth
From what is unmovable and silent, movement and consciousness are relative.
The depth of awareness is unfathomable, like space has no boundaries. Heron knows depth and boundaries are concepts in consciousness. Awareness is neither shallow nor deep… It is. Distance and measure are illusions in the relative world of appearances.
Matter (form) is emptiness and knows its way. The surface is the face of the depth… the surface ís the depth, Atman is Brahman.
Heron symbolizes the surrender to the form. Ego has ideas about life, which hinder nature and create stress or illness. Form (body) represents the Cosmos (wisdom) and serves the whole.
Awareness looks through the surface of appearances… it isn't fooled by projections of the mind. Heron lives from the depth of Being, allowing Life to act selflessly and Nature to take its course. What has been stored away in the deep of the cellar is not a threat for Being which is Depth.
