We need more translators of soul
Fragrance After Rain book excerpt
“For this world ahead we don't need more gurus. We need more translators of soul. The soul of the world is stirring. We are shedding old skins of oppression that constrict us collectively and personally. Catching the scent of freedom, like the fragrance of air just before rain. What is the soul of the world saying to you, dear one? What is your soul saying? Each of us can deepen our listening to these whispers, wails, and roars. They are always in us and all around us. They impart to us the path, how to walk it, and the meaning of release and birth. Have you heard the soul of a sand grain? It can sound like the majesty of a mountain. And what appears broken can sing a most glorious song. Look not at the surface of a thing and judge it. Listen not to the shell of someone's speaking and miss the seed within. Quiet your soul. Settle at its center. Now you are a mirror to a world that beholds itself through your clarity. Translate the pain. The purpose. The yearning. The beauty. Tell us. Why does everything now tremble? How is grace polishing our looking glass? And what, oh what, is this overwhelming sunrise for?”

OVERCOMING FEAR
A Sacred Word global gathering for freedom
Virtual talk by Dr. Jaiya John
For our October 17, 9 to 10:30am PT gathering, we will open as usual with an invitation for song from your marginalized ancestral culture.
Then I will feed your heart and soul. I pray that my message nourishes your life and creative life, including: 1) Exploring the roots of fear, 2) Illuminating ways you can overcome your fears to fulfill your life callings and visions, and, 3) Fortifying you for your personal and collective freedom work against oppression.
We will close with q&a and more sacred song.
Even if you may not attend on October 17, reserve a spot now so that you can access the recording on my website ($80 value).
