CHASING BLISS
For many, spirituality is still about seeking the next blissful, exciting, dramatic, transcendent, other-wordly experience, chasing the next 'high' promised by well-meaning gurus and teachers, running after the shakti, dancing and singing down the yellow brick road of enlightenment...
But you tire of chasing bliss, friend, and this is natural and to be expected and celebrated. And in the seeker's exhaustion, a deeper invitation reveals itself: the invitation to allow ALL experience, not just the 'good' or 'spiritual' or 'blissful' experiences. You come to recognise yourself as unlimited, undivided, nondual potential, capable of holding the pain as well as the bliss, the sorrow as well as the joy, the excitement as well as the fear. How vast you are!
