Eloquently spoken words encapsulating the true essence of my values.
We are all meant to shine ☀ You are born to manifest what is within you, to be liberated into who you are. Honour yourself and your dreams. You are worth it.
Listen to this amazing podcast on Sounds True on the golden shadow within.
“This golden shadow is a very hard shadow to detect in one’s self, and it’s a very humbling shadow when you uncover it, because what you uncover when you uncover it is that you have been projecting onto those you venerate. Say it’s a very holy guru. Say it’s Jesus. Say it’s the Buddha. You’ve been projecting onto these sacred iconic figures your own unlived powers of compassion, your own unlived wisdom, your own unlived splendor, and you uncover that it’s been very convenient for you to do so, because while you were adoring them, you were continuing to be you, ignorant, and greedy, and selfish, and narcissistic, while convincing yourself that you were doing real spiritual work, which is nothing less than claiming back the powers that you projected onto them and daring to pay the price in the core of your life for living them out, daring to go through an authentic transformation that makes you an authentic bearer of the same flame that you’ve loved in them.” (Andrew Harvey: The Shadow Course)
