PRAYING THE BODYThe 5Rhythms wave is my meditation
Meditation puts us in touch with our unconditioned awareness, the reality that lies beyond image and appearance. Some people would describe this as the soul or the sacred reality. Prayer is the expression of this connection. It is the part of the dance that cannot be taught and comes about from how we approach our practice and our commitment to dancing again and again wave after wave.
It is very much related to the meditative quality that we find in stillness and becomes refined from our practice.
It is also the most difficult part of the dance to talk about, and there is the obvious inadequacy of words to talk about what takes place in our hearts.
We may not know what we are doing when we pray but we know that it comes from a deep impulse and we know that the peace and comfort that we receive from it is real enough, those of us who have suffered pain, grief, loss know its healing power. As much as we try to capture the essence of prayer it remains a mystery and yet it is through it that we reconnect again and again to the mystery and the universe that surrounds us all
