the enjoyment body

To exercise the enjoyment body, the happiness in being the particular manifestation you are, it is best to settle down closer to the wellspring that continuously births you, that gives rise to you. Otherwise you stay in the fluff and paraphernalia of the surface world in which there is little or no happiness, only momentary thrills.

Each of us has our way of exercising the enjoyment body: stillness, silent openness of prayer (non-petitionary), meditation while walking or sitting or running or biking or martial arts or dancing or other forms of mindful moving, expression of compassion toward others (human and non-human), service, and more.

The enjoyment body is not sensual enjoyment. That comes with the physical body. The enjoyment body is larger than the physical body. Like all the bodies, the enjoyment body is strengthened by exercise and becomes ones "normal" mode of being.

Walking through the day in and as the enjoyment body and facing and dealing with whatever arises becomes one's way of life.
