At some point, now or later, you’re going to have to risk BEING YOU in order to find out who that really is. Not the conditioned you, not the “you” you’ve been taught to believe you are, who you really are. And this perhaps will be the scariest, the most loving, the most rewarding thing…
DetailsPart of what draws people to a spiritual life is a feeling that they need to do something or be something. It’s like a religious calling, but less well defined or less structured. And most of us want to know what that calling is and want to achieve it the best way we can. This…
