Having new experiences is a regular part of the spiritual path. Quite simply, all of life is always new. It is how our ego practices seeing and projecting the same things that makes life appear to be exactly the same. The reality is that things are breaking down, dying, and being born; it’s all in a state of change, different from one day to the next, always brand new.
On the path to understanding that reality, we realize that we are having new spiritual experiences of all kinds.
The following blog posts are meant to help you navigate that newness without backsliding into old ego habits.
