An initiation: and a koan

A koan is a dilemma, a mystery which the rational mind cannot solve—our global village.

We are part of the world. Yet, how can we be initiated into caring for everything? Even knowing we’re connected to it all.

Seasons: sensing an aroma of change

We don’t see things as they are, we see things as we are yet, in our pandemic we’ve been gifted connection to our ever-changing world. It’s a bridge to see beyond how we are.

Our world is changing. Our thinking patterns are shifting. To answer our pressing emergencies and, fortuitously, engaging in this brings an aliveness like nothing else.

We’re a worldwide civilisation now and can consciously engage in creating thriving, just, sustainable futures for everyone. Yet, sometimes, this seems like a very lonely path…

Weaving together the pieces that hasten, slowly and steadily, benevolution.
