In the case of Eastertide, what’s at stake - the aim we are striving for – is our physical capacity to be available to truth at a subtle and much more intense level. . . .
I believe firmly that during these great fifty days of Easter, [the] same invitation is extended to each one of us: to catch the drift of what Jesus is really inviting us to and to deepen our capacity to receive the intense spiritual energy available to us during this sacred season as a catapult to our own transformation - rather than merely sloughing it off in partying and business as usual. Jesus is headed somewhere amazing during these fifty days, and we can follow right along if we can keep up.
