Surrender isn’t easy.It is humbling- it cracks us open exactly where the light needs to get in. It is the last doorway to homecoming, fulfillment.Especially when we find ourselves in a bardo, as the Tibetans call it- that voidness between what was and what is yet to come.Here we meet the tug of our cumulated past, our ideas, fears, our attachments, our [...]
