Absolutely loving this gentle reflection... An invite to reflect on my own reflections and the reflections they create...
I am imagining a web... A net.
Thanks most of all for this...
* The hopeful part of Indra’s Net is that healing spreads just like harm does. Fear spreads, but so does courage. Violence spreads, but so does compassion. Despair spreads, but so does hope.
Love the reflection and I have not heard or been introduced to Indra's net. I have however taken similar pictures of spider webs in the trees in my backyard. Reading your reflection immediately took me back a couple of decades when I worked with a think tank/idea farm in the space industry. There is a grid network which exists at the Universe level as Indra's net points out, the same grid network exists at the sub atomic level. Microcosm = Macrocosm.
I'll take Thich Nacht Han's Indra Net, to our "internet," every time! The internet promotes screen gazing while the Indra Net urges us to looks up, and by doing so we realize we are not along, and by doing so, we then look within and find a light we never knew we had. Thank you, Rev. Cameron.
Interesting technology's use of the term 'cloud' in light of Thich Nhat Hanh's metaphor. That term was first used in 1993, but harkens back to creation - and how am I here in Europe able to read and reflect on all this, inter-clouded?
Cameron… God’s wisdom and insight continues to flow through you, jewel by jewel. Thank you for your commitment to sharing with us.

A gem at each node,
reflecting neighbor gems’ glow.
Indra’s net holds all.

I love this image! I especially love the jewels. Thank you for sharing this- I will hold onto this.
