Riassunto

This is a book of aliveness and brilliance; a luminous synthesis of sacred, eloquent creativity; a unique collaboration with Rashani Réa and Francis Weller, two compassionate authorities known for their revolutionary work and healing presence. The Journaling Edition includes nearly 100 blank pages, for those who want to add insights and reflections as they journey through the book.As we turn each page, we become increasingly aware of the inseparable union of unconditioned Awareness and our conditioned experiences—what Peter Fenner calls "The Co-emergent Wisdom of Just This." Rashani and Francis are skilled toolmakers who masterfully guide us through the raw vulnerability of grief to a place of reverence for the journey, offering a balm to the nomads of this harsh terrain. "The Threshold Between Loss and Revelation" infuses our lives with an immediate sense of perspective—deeper than, and beyond, conceptual understanding, inviting us to consider that suffering is an option, not an inevitable, ongoing condition! Rashani Réa's 108 stunning, full color collages are accompanied by six chapters of exquisite, soulful writing by Francis Weller. Each collage contains inspired words from more than fifty women and men, whose insights invite us to glimpse That which is unscathable and whole—That which has been colored by experience (and grief) yet not harmed or changed by any degree of pain or suffering.This book is a compass, a lamp, a valuable guide! It is a remarkable embodiment of the ancient Tibetan practice of Tonglen. Throughout these pages you will find a spaciousness for cultivating mercy and equanimity in the presence of suffering. Réa and Weller have breathed in personal and collective pain and are breathing out compassion, wisdom, wakefulness, and beauty. You can but hold it and reach a peace you thought unattainable. But read it for perspective, and for the love of art and solace.

An assistant to Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross during the 1980’s, Rashani Réa is a mother, grief whisperer/doula, long-time activist, skilled carpenter, passionate earth steward, and a prolific artist. She interweaves earth-based spirituality and self inquiry with Buddhist and Process Oriented psychology, Psychosynthesis, deep ecology, Soetry (song and poetry), shamanism, alchemy, and the nondual/direct approach. During the past 26 years, she has designed and co-created two eco-sanctuaries on the Big Island of Hawai‘i, where she currently resides. A strong and gentle eco-feminist voice in the inter-spiritual movement since 1986, Rashani offers concerts, councils, kirtans, rituals, and retreats throughout the world and at her home in Ka‘u, Hawai‘i. She is the author and creatrix of 22 books, including "Beyond Brokenness," which was recently translated into Danish, and an extensive collection of Dharma-Gaia greeting cards. She has recorded 15 albums of songs, chants, and poetry, including “Death is a Gateway: Songs for the Sacred Passage.” Francis Weller is a psychotherapist, writer and soul activist.
