While looking for a place to photograph the sunrise, I came upon this sandstone pothole filled with rainwater from the previous day's storm. Measuring only about three feet long by two feet wide, it nevertheless was able to reflect the massive Courthouse Towers, which tower hundreds of feet above the valley floor. However, I didn't discover the reflection until I placed my head almost next to the ground. Isn't it amazing that each of us is somehow able to mirror the infinity of the Divine, even though we may seem small and insignificant? All that is needed is an attitude of inner stillness and receptivity, and a sustained practice of resting on the Ground of Being.
