INTEGRATION
April 25, 2021
SUMMARY
This dialogue reflects on Integration as a fundamental principle ofthe Universe, likening it to a fabric that binds together all theexperiences and relationships of our lives. Being integral involvesrecognizing and accepting all facets of oneself, both the lights and theshadows. We are invited to engage in a practical exercise of symbolicconstruction, weaving a fabric that represents our history, connections,and experiences. It is a call to embrace our complexity and find harmonywithin ourselves.
