You are the Sky (everything else is just the weather)

Hello, Spiritual Warrior!

About a month ago, this clip unexpectedly took on a life of its own. 

For some reason, it deeply resonated with people – perhaps because it speaks to something we all need to remember.

It stems from this beautiful wisdom from Buddhist teacher Pema Chödrön:

You are the sky. Everything else is just the weather.

And yet… how quickly we forget.

The moment a storm rolls through – conflict, overwhelm, stress, sadness, anger, disappointment, resentment, fear, uncertainty – we begin to believe we are the storm.

But you are not your stress. You are not your anxiety. You are not your difficult season.

You are not the emotion moving through you. You are the vast sky holding all of it.

Storms arrive. Storms pass. Clouds gather. Winds shift. Rain falls. And eventually, the sky reveals itself again – unchanged beneath it all.

There is something steady within you. Something that is at peace no matter what storm is moving through. It’s there even when you forget. 

Keep coming back to that, again and again. 

I have hundreds upon hundreds of free meditations on YouTube that I share in these weekly emails – all of them are an invitation to remember that you are the sky, and to let go of your connection to the weather. 

I hope that you find value in what I share here, and I’d love to hear about it if you do – feel free to send me a message at info@davidji.com!

With love and peace,

davidji
