Farmers know timing. Plant a seed in the wrong season and nothing comes up. No flower, no fruit. Your heart is a field, and right now is a good season. The seed is the Naam. Plant it by paying attention. Pull out the weeds of stubbornness and doubt, and go to the Guru for shelter. Then love starts to grow. All the effort you put in counts. Your field fills with a crop that never runs out. It is the kind of harvest that leaves you full, calm and content. At the centre, the Rahao: O mind, this is the season to plant the seed of the Naam.
