A while back a 10 year old was sharing with me that she often asks herself, “Why do I exist?”. This is a young person with a very challenging family situation, and I could feel some contraction and sadness as she asked this question, a sense of hopelessness in understanding the challenges she faces.
And I could also feel the innocence of this question that resonated deeply. “Why do I exist?” - what a beautiful question full of awe and wonder that can lead us to the very source of what we are.
I am curious, if you ask yourself this question right now - “Why do I exist?” What arises? Thoughts? Emotions? Sensations? Or perhaps nothing at all - silence, emptiness, I don’t know. What if there is space for everything that arises to just be - no right answer or wrong answer - everything welcome and met free of judgement and appraisal. What could be revealed?
What if there is permission to rest and sink even more deeply into the source from which this question arises? Where the one asking and the question itself dissolve, open? I am curious what remains?
Everyone is welcome to join us on Saturday September 7th to discover for yourself what is here when this question is asked. And what it feels like to live from the depths of the answer. Linda Floan will co-host with me.
We plan to gather by zoom on Saturday September 7th from 10am to 11:30am Mountain time & all are welcome.
