Listen "CONTEMPLATION ON STARDUST"
Episode Synopsis
Being that our atoms in our body were created at the start of our universe during the Big Bang. So if you look at it this way, then you’re about 13.7 billion years old.
But your body also has heavier elements like copper and zinc. These atoms were created in the dying stage of an exploding star called a supernova.
These elements were flung into space as dust and gas (stardust). Eventually, they coalesced to become part of a new forming solar system and our planet Earth.
Because you are made from matter from the Earth, you are made of stardust from old supernovas. So turns out, your body is made up of bits and pieces of star and cosmic dust. E.H.
Your essence however is an energy called love, extending far beyond any matter or form, existing everywhere simultaneously in equal measure. Compared to this core reality all form and matter are but illusion. Nigel Lott
It is in the nothing that the everything is found…..Nigel Lott
SPRINKLE IT ALL AROUND THEN IN THE NAME OF LOVE

In the quiet between heartbeats a whisper calls you home, you are not broken you are becoming. These threads of silence and sound are letters from the threshold, offerings from the edge of stillness. Nigel TEA AND ZEN - MAIN LIBRARY
