Only in the core of great pain, confusion, crisis, and helplessness…
…can we discover and develop the assets our soul has carried silently…
…awaiting, in secret, just such an opportunity… to grow, to surpass all of our fictions, and to accomplish the great victory which is our essential basis, our nature, and our path.

The pain we feel is like the pressure that precedes the movement of a compass needle which has too long been frozen in a position that has become clichéd… and when it moves at last, our fictions shatter, and we undergo an inward metamorphosis; emerging with new powers, new seeing, and new ways of being.
