The Art of Letting Go
In every experience that makes our life fulfilling and meaningful, we are required to let go of our previous fears and beliefs: in love, trust, intimacy, creativity, totality, courage, and many others. This letting go is also called a "small death" -because it requires our willingness to go beyond our fears and ideas into something unknown, in those moments when our conditioning ,fear or ignorance would have us shut down and close.
This group-process is about something very essential :
learning to die is learning how to really live, to be open , available, and at the same time centered, authentically strong , and rooted in fearlessness !cally
When we begin to understand and know from experience and insight , that death is in reality an eternal change, and this change is also a key to a life without fear, we can experience the renewal and the transformation of death.
Otherwise we will be locked in our fears of death and life.
Letting something die really opens us up to the possibility of life taking us into more trust, into the divine, into the oneness with all of existence. Remembering the fact of our death can give us the key to be present to life.
And to be present is the essential for a fulfilled life!
And there are so many small and big deaths happening in our lives that invite us to discover that letting go awakens us to be present, to become one with the existential reality in all possible situations and challenges! When we allow death, which is one expression of letting go, its natural place in life, it offers us many opportunities to open to the beauty of life: the unexpected, the depths, the vulnerability, the strength, the compassion, and ultimately the trust that arises when we learn that we are one with life, that there is nothing to be afraid of. Death invites us to learn this gift of letting go.
It can become the attitude of our whole lifestyle, and we will never be at a loss when we are living in let go, because the attitude of letting go signifies authentic freedom.
Learning to let go is learning the real meaning of liberation, personal and universal. It means to flow with life´s happenings and changes, to flow with creativity and inspiration.It opens us to our most vital and powerful potential for living authentically - not clinging to the things we are busy holding on to, but receiving the gifts of a life that finds its fulfillment in giving, sharing, trusting, loving, and being, learning to surrender to what is taken away with gratitude, and trusting that a conscious life already gives us more than we can ever ask for.
If we have learned to let go, we can still strive for whatever we would like, but without stress and greed that only create more suffering and fear . Death can also teach us to say goodbye, not as an ending, but as a welcome to the essential life that always continues. In passing through the fear of letting go do we find the key to receiving the blessings of a life in trust into our ONENESS, which is already our nature.
Ordinarily we live in superficial conventions that keep us from ever really knowing ourselves and each other, and also from the mystery of life. As we grow up with fears and judgements about many aspects of ourselves, we learn to reject or repress many experiences: e.g. joy, sexuality, openess, tears, laughter, anger, grief, fear, creativity, trust, aloneness, surrender, ecstasy, and many more! Tragically we are too busy to bother about these qualities, while the suffering of our unnatural life becomes more and more and sooner or later unbearable.
Society does not value presence, but getting and having more and more. Most people are obsessive about getting what they want,using power, rage and other means to go for what they think gives them happiness.The instinct to get is deeply rooted in all of us,but that is not where our personal growth should stop. Our society´s development has more or less stopped, we are destroying the planet and actively or passively involved in killing life in this world, just for the sake of getting what we think we want
Many of the experiences and insights of this work can be applied to everyday life, thus giving us the keys of how to make our life more significant, loving and courageous.
