“Our greatest gifts come from our deepest wounding.”
Each one of us is born with a sacred wound which is an initiation to call the soul back home, to awaken us to our destiny and our highest potential.
Notes to the Beloved is an authentic, honest exploration of the sacred wound of true love against the backdrop of the collective wound of the pandemic.
What does it take to embrace and surrender to the beloved for who they truly are instead of struggling to sculpt them to match our map of the world and love? Why is the death of ego such a formidable challenge when it comes to matters of the heart? Are we aware of the truth that one can be only as intimate with one’s beloved as one is with their self? How does one move from separation to mystical union with oneself and the beloved? How do we mend our broken hearts to be our savior and protector?
The loving, the deep hurting, the breaking apart, and the healing are all part of the journey of learning to love and be loved deeply. Why do we see each other as separate from the other and suffer more?
The book explores these questions & many more through the lens of the author’s odyssey & expands into a voyage of truth and awakening leading to her catharsis.
