Update time! ☀️ Jesse is now in Ontario and is facing some of his biggest challenges on his road trip. Not so much physical as emotional, as he faces, and let's go of, the past that has haunted his life. Here's his latest update:
"Found this today and it hits home for me on this trip, cleansing my life of the weight of the past through one of the greatest challenges Ive ever undertaken, for some a trip like this can be taken easy, with short days and plenty of rest, but for me my internal gearing is alway pushing harder. Everyday is another chance to go further, to get stronger and to prove to myself that I have more in the tank than i ever could have imagined, so everyday is a challenge. I have had several epiphanies and transformative moments along the way, and like this quote says it has only come through the crucible of fire and would not have come in the comfort of everyday life. I am grateful for what I have learend so far and for whats to come.
“Real transformation doesn’t come from an occasional yoga class, incense and comfort. It comes from fire. From the crucible of rebirth.
The alchemical fire doesn’t ask for permission. It demands sacrifice. Not of your body—but of your illusions.
The old self cannot walk the path of the awakened.
It must be burned. Purified. Distilled. Exalted
What are you still clinging to?
The story of separation? The belief in scarcity?
Your addiction to control?
That quiet voice whispering you are unworthy?
The lie that time owns you?
The grip of fear?
The illusion of death?
These are the seven veils—and every single one is woven from the same thread: forgetfulness of your infinite nature.
To walk the razors edge of consciousness
is not poetic metaphor.
It is sacrifice.
It is standing naked before the flame
and letting every mask fall.
No more personas.
No more roles.
No more hiding behind spiritual platitudes or victim stories.
Just you. Raw. Infinite. Eternal.
Those who walk through fire carry no baggage.
They emerge not as improved versions of their former selves— but as something altogether otherworldly.
You want truth?
Then strip down.
Burn it all.
And remember:
The naked truth will always offend those clothed in beautiful lies.
Let them be offended.
You’re not here to be palatable.
You’re here to be transfigured.
So I’ll ask again—
What needs to burn?”
