Dragons possess immense spiritual properties, often symbolizing strength, wisdom, and transformation. They are elemental beings, embodying the primal forces of nature. As guardians of ancient wisdom, dragons hold the secrets of the universe and the mysteries of creation. In many spiritual traditions, dragons are seen as protectors of sacred knowledge and gateways to higher states of consciousness. They represent the power to transcend limitations, ignite personal transformation, and harness the latent energy within oneself for spiritual growth.

Samsara is simply perceiving your reality through the lens of the self. When that lens is removed we experience everything as luminous awareness. It’s not complicated.

Don’t underestimate the spiritual dimension of this crisis. Take the perspective of an eagle that sees everything from above with a broader eye. There is a social question in this crisis, but also a spiritual question. Both go hand in hand.

Without the social dimension, we fall into bigotry. Without the spiritual dimension we perish in pessimism and meaninglessness.

You are ready to endure this crisis. Pack your toolbox and use all the tools available.
