Simplicity on the other side of complexity
Is hard to achieve. Like mastery, it is the journey of discernment and elimination.. not this, not that. But this.
The journey is worth every step for the clarification that becomes evident as you stay committed to the purity of the expression.
Clarity is powerful. Few words applied might carry the impact of one hundred thoughtlessly strung together.
It is the power of the poetry of the mystics.
“Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.” Rumi
When an idea arrives in your being, one that seizes you to act, to put aside the petty calls of life, it has within it the clarity to move mountains.
To bring this idea to life in the minds of others, to invite their attentive participation, we must speak the idea in the language of the mystics.
We must find the simplicity on the other side of complexity. And when we do, the arrow of intention, like a transmission, pierces the right hearts and minds. A crowd forms as we bring our idea to life.
