"Look for more than 3 seconds. What you assume is your garden—a plant, a bush, a tree, you will see is more than an individual thing or separate object. It is part of a much larger reality without actual limits or boundaries. In the same way that every point in the universe is expanding, everything in your garden, in your life, you, is at the same time the center of the universe and a feature of the universe. Each plant, bush, and tree in the garden—and the garden itself— is an image, a representation, a model, a mirror, of everything else, including yourself, the gardener. Stop scanning with your eyes, and experience the unity of Life in your garden."
