Way of Nature: Esalen, September 2017

Sea Cave, Big Sur

"You didn't come into this world. You came out of it, like a wave from the ocean. You are not a stranger here." ~ Alan Watts

Heartfelt gratitude for all of you chose to be present for the week, and in presence for all that unfolded. I am touched by the courage I witnessed. The courage to be curious, open, playful, vulnerable, to take the first step... close in, to be truly student of wild nature, and the mystery of the unfolding event of life.

Here are links that were requested and others I hope you find useful:

Don't Go Back To Sleep
"The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don't go back to sleep.

You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep.

People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.

The door is round and open.
Don't go back to sleep."

~ Rumi (translated by Coleman Barks, From Essential Rumi)

Warm Big Sur Blessing to All,

Steven

P.S. Wishing you balance as our planet makes its way around the sun on this Equinox, September 22.
