Using the tool of attention to conjure states like gratitude or recognition, we can choose to infuse objects or moments around us with divinity, or blessing.

A blessing, one definition says, is something which makes the mind more beneficial to itself. And divinity is the wider-than-thought space born of selflessness and awareness. Both divinity and blessing can exist in dense matter, if placed there.

A practice of attention like this can be both easy and potent if we do it with food. If we allow the action of consumption to rise to its symbolic power, we allow ourselves to be humbled, and changed. A practice of attention is nothing more than a reorganisation of mind and body.

Definition of blessing from Phakchok Rinpoche

Sign as Decorative Emergence

Things come to us sometimes and they glow. They are like gems, full of source, honed through the many, many versions of their own evolving bodies. Made ripe by patience, experimentation, and attention, they can suddenly appear before us in a drop of presence, tagged bright with the natural bedrock of endless creation. You can get to know the feeling of when objects or scenes come to you from there, and it will become familiar. By doing this, you will also be allowing a river to form there in that space in your consciousness, creating a groove.
