Rythm and the body

The body has it's own rythms; beating along with the Universal wave. When the body gets out of rythm, disease manifests. I used to close my body from rythm, I would make myself hard and unmovable. Everything so as not to let myslef be vulnerable, and, I reasoned, be hurt. But lately I've been feeling rythms again. I've become sensitive to the pulse of my body, of life, and I'm letting myself experience it. I think it has a lot to do with listening to a lot of gurbani kirtan. The rythm of the lines, the syllables, all to the accompaniment of soft tablas that fall into the heart like raindrops. It's quite wonderful.
