On a deeper level, the course (along with also reading Jem Bendell’s latest book at the same time) has finally given me the motivation to take seriously my spiritual perspective and to find peace or rest with where I am at, and where the world is at. I am no longer arguing with reality, with what is, on any level. I have dropped my forceful mind and I have surrendered the idea that I am in charge of my life or that I am making things happen or directing existence in any way. For me this is the acceptance I was seeking, and it was always already here. I have exhausted all my seeking, and surrendered to life as it is. I don’t mind what happens and I am not judging myself or anyone else – and it is a blessed relief.
