Who sees all being in his own SELF

"Who sees all beings in his own Self and his own Self in all beings, loses all fear". This quote comes from the Isa Upanishad. I continue a periodic meditation and want to do it daily however I allow other distractions to keep me from sitting. This morning, in The Book of Awakening by Mark Nero, a gift from Joan Trabucco, I read the quote above, and the reflection Mark wrote and it resonated with me. Practicing seeing me in everyone helps to take away judgment, enhance compassion and deepen each relationship. I have also been practicing being in the present moment. As my mind wanders to worry about the future, I keep bringing myself back to experience where I am, who I am with and find the beauty of each moment deepening.
