Om mani padme hum
I have chosen this Tibetan buddhist mantra as the jewel of our journey.
Mentorship is a chance to reconnect and refine. To be pulled back into the heart of your practice, to the jewel in the centre of all being that is the source and the reward of your commitment to the path of love and presence.
Just as the mind wanders in meditation and can pull our awareness out of the expansive field of being and into the contracted suffering self, so too, time away from spiritual sangha and focussed sadhana can water down our ease and depth of connection to the essential self - leaving the day to day experience of being feeling more isolate and dense.
The lustre we long to feel and see in the everyday, is illumined by the romance and loyalty of practice.
And this is why we practice, to move into that lustre, to move and be moved with and as love.
I have chosen the flavour of this mentorship to be a focus on the essentials. With simplicity, wonder, discipline and compassion, we enter the jewel in the lotus, to (re)awaken love in practice and in life.
