Seeds of Insight 043 - A True Meeting

A True Meeting is like "water being poured into water" - no separation is there and no union either. It's something else, closer than that.

A True Meeting is a permission to be as you naturally are - unfixed, unembellished, imperfect, raw. It’s not trying to fix you, nor improve you. It’s more nourishing than that - it invites you to be as broken as you are, so that you can discover what cannot be broken.

A True Meeting is an open space. It's not "holding space" as there is no one to hold anything. When the grasping and control are fully released, you discover that you are totally held. Something greater is holding you.

A True Meeting is not abstract and it's not practical. It doesn't give you 3 steps to achieve this or that. And it doesn't speak of things you can't relate to. It's something else, more dear to you than that.

A True Meeting is about telling the truth all the way. It makes no empty promises, gives no ready answers. It doesn’t claim to fix your problems & magically transform you into a better you. No. It’s a recognition that you don’t need to be “better”, that nothing needs to be fixed, that you alone have all the answers within you. 

A True Meeting is medicine for old wounds, yet it makes no promises to give you a special potion. Indeed, you alone have the recipe - it’s a loving support to find your own ingredients within you.

A True Meeting is about meeting yourself in an empty mirror and seeing clearly all that you believe about yourself, all that you deny about yourself and something else too - that, which cannot be denied.

I long to meet you in this way.

True Friend Therapy sessions are available on my website and there is a free 20 min intro chat available. Share the love, spread it to anyone who might benefit, whose hand can be held in these times.

Love and Gratitude,

Iri
