Pain as the marker, the light, the teacher, the inspiration for finding truth and love. Surrender and pain are the guides for going deeper. Without attachment, longing, and desire can one find the pain which unfolds the path. Pain on all levels (physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual) is the gift. The deeper the pain, the deeper the love. The exquisite nature of love and its' ability to evoke transparency, acceptance, and "letting go" or the pain begins to pull at the heart. A pull to open even wider, surrender, trust, and drop into the the unknown--the mystery of it all. Gurudev, "It is all a cycle." Nothing to hold onto. Only the mind creates this illusion.
An electronic diary sharing my spiritual path through observations/experiences, photos, videos, articles and more. It started with intensity at the end of January 2011 when I decided to go to South Africa and see the truth of animals living in the wild. Unsatisfied with the answers, I went to India looking for the truth of humans in an ancient civilization. Packing up my life as a dressage trainer in Southern California, I moved to Jaipur, India to follow a spiritual inquiry.

Pain As The Teacher-The Gift
