May what I do flow through me like a river no forcing and no holding back... Rilke It is possible to live life in deep intimacy with our own experience, in touch with others, with nature, and with mystery. Abide and deepen in wisdom and compassion; learn to cooperate with the underlying flow, no matter what the life circumstances.
Nothing is as substantial as it seems. We fuel a dynamic spiritual unfolding when we reach a realization of the insubstantiality of what we believe to be true, when we see that both our doubts and certainties need to be challenged.
Understanding insubstantialtiy does not mean that things do not exist at all. Instead it invites us to a looser perception, an awareness that we are each conditioned by our life experiences. This conditioning contributes to our uniqueness but also limits our view and colors all of our perceptions. We can learn to widen our perceptions and open to what is most real, to vitality, energy, enthusiasm, and joy: to being fully alive.
