Multicultural Breathwork, Counseling & Coaching with Lori

"Angry people want you to see how powerful they are...
Loving people want you to see how powerful You are."

— Chief Red Eagle

For me, the main purpose of self development is so we can be of greater service to the community at large...

It’s easy to blame the “monkey mind” for our perpetual anxiety, but its far more productive to drop down into the body and clear the “monkey heart” that sources it. Patriarchal spiritualities prefer it if you avoid your feelings altogether and fixate on the mind. But it just doesn't work, because the originating traumas are held within the body.

No others
“Questioner: How are we to treat the others? Ramana Maharshi: There are no others.”

~Talks with Sri Ramana Maharshi

Oh, this hit me solid.
The epitome love is holding this thought (“there are no others.”) especially when things are in chaos –
Love, it is not a sappy cute puppy emotion but a love that has no borders, no sharp edges or hurdles or conditions to abide by.
No separation.
No skin color, eye color, or hair color that makes a difference – we all bleed the same.
We all hurt, we all laugh, we all cry.
We are human.
Nothing more, nothing less.
“There are no others.”

“A moment comes when "other" is no longer other.”

~Ram Dass

The first time I met Love
My heart was broken
and I asked
“How could you have betrayed me?”
And Love replied
“It was your expectations. I am incapable of betrayal.”

The second time I met Love
My spirit felt crushed
and I asked
“How could you have hurt me?”
And Love replied
“It was your reaction to the situation.
I am incapable of causing pain.”

The third time I met Love
My energy was drained
and I asked
“How could you have depleted me?”
And Love replied
“It was your lack of self-love and failure to set appropriate boundaries.
I am incapable of depleting you.”

The fourth time I met Love
My entire being felt alone
and I asked
“How could you have abandoned me?”
And Love replied
“I am always with you and can never leave you
As I dwell within you.”

The fifth time I met Love
My soul felt vulnerable, naked and exposed
and I asked
“How could you have embarrassed me?"
And Love replied
“It was your ego that caused you to feel embarrassed.
I am incapable of experiencing or causing shame.”

The sixth time I met Love
Anger rippled through me
and I asked
“How could you have taken from me?”
And Love replied
“I cannot take from you.
I give while asking for nothing in return
As I am unconditional.”

The seventh time I met Love
A deep sense of sadness pervaded me
and I asked
“How could you have fooled me and then used me?”
And Love replied rather gently and compassionately
“Do not mistake someone’s inability to love you
For the truth of who I am.”

And the eighth and final time I met Love
I greeted it as an old friend
Free from expectations, heartbreak, pain, shame and conditions
And Love embraced me and said
“Now you truly know me.”
