Beautiful pink lily-like flowers are blooming in the garden. Lycoris squamigera, also known as Naked Ladies.
The strappy leaves were green in May, then slowly faded away. Two months later, a single stem of flowers rises up 3 feet with delicate pale pink blossoms, like a summer amaryllis.
Our meditation practice can look like this. We meditate and study, do our work. Only later does our practice come into full flower, surprising even us with an internal calm despite windy conditions in our lives.
Meditate now as if your life depended on it.
It does.
