On Power

When truly powerful experiences of inner opening begin to happen to the individual, surprisingly they tend not to come in the way one might imagine what constitutes “power.” We think of power in the way of superman, being able to do anything and being unstoppable.

More often than not, hugely powerful inner openings come to me accompanied by a great sense of awe and feeling immensely vulnerable and feeling more like a small child than superman.

The power of spiritual realization exists more along the lines of the power and the beauty of a freshly blossoming rose flower. It takes a good while and much care to get there, but could be erased or disregarded in a second.
