Now imagine you couldn't see.
Which sight would you miss most?

Now turn inwardly toward your eyes as if you could speak to then. Let them know, how grateful you are for all the beautiful things you can see through them, especially the one sight which you appreciate most.

Now imagine you couldn't hear.
Which sound would you miss most?

And then turn inwardly towards your ears and let them know how grateful you are for their service. For all the voices, music, sounds you can hear through them.
And especially for the one thing which you appreciate most.

Imagine you couldn't taste.
Which taste would you miss most?

Turn inwardly towards your tongue and let it know how grateful you are for its service to you....

Imagine you couldn't smell.
Which scent would you miss most?

Imagine you couldn't have sensations in your fingers and body. Which touch would you miss most?

Imagine you couldn't think.
Which thought or mental activity would you miss most?

Imagine you wouldn't have pure awareness, no Buddha-mind.
Without that you would be lost in the flood of sense information.

So now speak to this Buddha-mind or non-sense mind inside of you, and let it know how much you appreciate its space and clarity which allows you to keep perspective on how things are

Now open your eyes and look into the eyes of your neighbour -
Can you see the same Buddha-mind in her eyes?
Bow slightly to him or her in joy and gratitude, if you value a companion who reminds you of the awareness and knowing you share.
And look around, there are more of them............
