Dear Friends
In our last December Newsletter we announced we´d start our own Winter Retreat here. Just the both of Us. We did.
For several weeks we slowed down and did nothing much.
What a privilege to be able to do so.
That Stillness has stayed.
Listening yesterday to Pam Gregory´s sublime astrological description of the Equinox, her words at the end of the video supported us:
"I´d like to promote something I call "The Big Slowdown", internally. The World is going to get wilder on the outside, more people are going to be reactive. Turn Inwards! Dedicate yourself to the big slowdown.
Because if we can stay calm, centered, peaceful in the midst of this storm - that´s actually our mastery. That is not spiritual bypassing, we´re just choosing not to react to it. It´s not selfish as we´re all going to broadcast that calmness out to the collective, it´s actually service to the others.
whereafter she quotes Ilya Prigogine, Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1977:
“When a complex system is far from equilibrium, small islands of coherence in a sea of chaos have the capacity to shift the entire system to a higher order.”
May We All Be an Island of Coherence
Much Love from the both of us...
Mayadevi & Shintai
