We
take the workshops and trainings
do our personal work
develop skills – healers, sages, shaman
start a practice, become recognized
do good work, build confidence
become a peer in the metaphysical community
Yet
spiritual glamours entice
deeper obscurations and defilements lurk
spirit sends us messages – but old defences stand in place
Where are the mentors / masters who will confront us?
With caring, courage, and searing insight
Laughing at our self importance
Insisting we stop loitering
Bringing us to dissolution
Engagement with the deeper mysteries
