Ram Dass once spoke of two types of fear associated with change.
The first is that of clinging. Like a climber ascending the face of a mountain – reaching for, and having faith, in that very next hold. We must let go in order to rise. Though all too often, there is a sense of urgency – to grasp that which is already known.
The second is that of longing; of leaving behind the expansiveness of ‘view.’ As the climber descends, he or she may experience a sense of loss and limitation; reinforced through their self-made fortifications.
It’s a perfect analogy to describe our own ‘ascension’. As we drift between these planes of consciousness, we begin to discover our own self-truth.
And in that process, we may experience fear, sadness and regret – as the boundaries of this human form are shattered to accommodate this knowing of who we might come to be.
Though, we alone must make that choice; to sit idly by or reach for freedom.
A little something to consider, my loves ~
In peace…
Namaste ❤️
