Life's Most Precious Possession
When you meditate soulfully, early in the morning, you enter
into a higher world, the world of divine reality, perfection
and satisfaction.
You can try to bring this world down into your music in
a practical way. While you are breathing in and breathing
out, try to feel that you are offering your life-breath to
the instrument that you will use.
Your life-breath is something very precious. Feel that you
are offering your life's most precious possession to your
instrument.
When the Supreme created you, He gave you a portion of His
Reality, His Divinity. That was the supreme sacrifice. He
gave you something of Himself and created you.
Try to feel that now you are creating something for the world.
You are giving to your instrument something of yourself -
something really precious and luminous, something which is
part and parcel of your own reality.
You are the instrument of the Supreme. He is using you, and
you are using something else, your own instrument. It takes
only a few seconds. Just cast a glance at your instrument
and feel your life-breath inside.
At that time, offer your gratitude to the Supreme, who gave
you life itself, and feel that a portion of your life you
are giving to your instrument.
The Creator created you by offering you a portion of His Reality.
Now He is asking you to create something in the same way.
