JOAN FAHNESTOCK RUVINSKY

In her last interview Joan was asked; What is the most important lesson/point she wanted her students to remember? Her answer, to forget all my teachings. As you can surmise, I think Joan was saying comprehension, intellectual analysis and exploration into the experience of awakening aren´t awakening. Pretty words and thoughts that might as well be pretty words about loving your dog or sister. They aren´t That. Drop all the understanding. And you will find "the peace of God, which passes...

Missing you today.

I think of you often. Namaste
