Welcome

Primitive religion is not believed, it is danced!

Arthur Darby Nock

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
And only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

Letting go

It’s like when you climb a ladder. When you get to the fourth rung, you may think you are on the highest step and cannot go higher, so you hold on to the fourth rung. But in fact there is a fifth rung; if you want to get to it, you have to be willing to abandon the fourth rung. Ideas and perceptions should be abandoned all the time, to make room for better ideas and truer perceptions. This is why we must always ask ourselves, “Am I sure?

Die to live
Give to receive
Lose to win

This is Sacred mathematics at work

As long as we hang on to
Old ideas
Old perceptions
Old fears
Old hopes
Old expectations
Old injuries
Old narratives
Even

Old victories

We will fail to find the truth
And fail to find Sacred vision for ourselves
Our relationships
Our work

Instead we will be stuck
Inside a dense box
Of our own making

We must die
Let go
So that God’s new thing
May emerge in us, and through us
