Thank you❤

As a mother of 8, gosh, I can so relate. This has been an ongoing agony for me. I’m so looking forward to this scavenger hunt, Mirabai. ❤
Mirabai: I’m grateful for all you are and all you offer, but wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for this particular message, in all its specifics that you shared in this short recording. Thank you so, so much. xx
You are awesome. The “real” example that we all find relief in.
Thank you. I’ve been yearning to reach out to former 20 yr life-partner and best friend with these similar sentiments. So much time has gone by and I’ve looked at it still confused (he just cut off after his dad died quite coldly yet I do feel I waited too long to say some truths and take responsibility for what he perceived as my “abandining him” - he knew I was stuck caregiving dad in messy situation). I’m still not sure if I should keep in mind other issues he’d had where I’d stay/overlook it OR write from my soul , expressing things I was stopped from expressing from Love. We never spoke heart to heart in person. So strange- his avoidance. I just shut down in trauma. You bring up what’s in my soul- from a spiritual perspective- honest communication and the reality that this was a Most important relationship and we are on this planet but for a short time. That I’m not perfect. I struggle with reaching out with live and hope for honest communication or accept that it appears he had a disorder which took advantage of an opportunity to finally be free to pursue an identity issue which I thought we had dealt with a decade ago. Pls Thoughts?
I love that you are bringing out how when we engage our inner mystic, it can be that we become aware not only of the love that we are but the shadow aspects that we must still excavate. It is with the deepest humility that we face our perfectly imperfect selves while holding onto the possibility that we can reach higher states of consciousness.
This was captivating, I am awakening to this beauty, this love having been through huge transformation of my son's physical death. (Although he is with me in spirit) The fire song calls to me . I saw Andrew talking to Caroline about Hadewijch and now with Mirabai! The transformation poem, song of transformationn p163 'Just as lit wood becomes fire . . .so the soul burnt by Him becomes Him' Lover and beloved 💗My soul sings x
Congratulations. And thank you for your work in the world.
Looking forward to this book 🎉
Deepest gratitude, Mirabai ❤
I just lost my best friend to a tortuous cancer death and being by her side daily I feel like I was dying a little with her as we traveled together. I have been listening and reading and absorbing the gift of your perspective which has helped me feel present to this dissolving of my old self and also helped me not to “run” onward but to sit in the rubble. And know this right now is where I belong -it offers peace that running does not. Thank you ❤ Kathy
Just what I needed to hear at this most difficult time. Thanks Mirabai. You are so believable....and unbelievable!!!
thank you Mirabeau. love you!
Thank you thank you 💜
A cedar breeze touched the air…You speak and the sky calls for you, I have read your translations of Teresa of Avila, both books. There are no words great enough to say how I honor you.
I remember shortly after my mother passed away that trees started to bloom, and it felt so odd, so surreal. That was also 22 years ago, so I understand completely how you still feel about the loss of your daughter (unspeakable! I had no idea, sending you so much love) ❤️ 🙏🏻
Beautiful! Yeah, life through the eyes of a child is a real miracle. That is what we need. My inbox is spilling over with Gaza related news, and I just can't watch or read them anymore. I'm totally burnt out and when I'm burnt out I usually get sick (Fever, flu, sinusitis, bronchitis). That is what I have now. Thanks by the way for the link for "Where Olive Trees Weep". Very impressive documentary. I saw that you also participated in an conversation, when going through the library at SAND. Looking forward to watching your video. All the best. It's good to see you smile.
Mirabai 🌺 I just finished Caravan of No Despair this morning. I couldn't put it down - I read it in two days. At some points, I could hardly see the text through the tears of my own grief. Thank you. Your memoir has brought me so much healing. You are a gift. 🌟
Thank you, Mirabai!😊💕
My love for animals is possibly the most hurting feeling I know. I cannot stand the way we people act towards them, and if there is a thing I have against God, it is His allowing it.
Loved the book, and have recommended to so many, I would love to have the audio but it has been out of stock for such a long time. It speaks right into my soul. ❤
Beautiful and really resonates for me with nature ❤️
Yes, to love! Thank you, Mirabai. See you on the 19th! How wonderful. xo
Thank you for your authenticity and generosity. 🙏🏽✨
I'm running a bit late, but am going to get going with this now beginning with my responding to your first writing assignment about all this plus my "self." We'll see what, if anything, happens with my writing prompt #1 and I look forward to being with all of you once again if/when I can see to get there quickly. My eyes are a problem right now. Sorry. Thanks for bearing with me on this. Amen. Blessings to all.
This is so beautiful, Mirabai. I love this morning licking/loving ritual. My 1-year-old cat Sweetness has taught me about freedom by turning herself into an outdoor cat! But she still loves to sleep inside when it's raining, and makes biscuits on my heart and throat at night sometimes.
I see the face of God every single time I see an animal. They are so innocent and beautiful and pure and so beyond worthy of our love and protection. I recently lost my heart-horse Mariposa... she was one of the greatest loves of my life, and she reflected my soul back to me. I will always carry her with me here on earth until we are together again in God. Animals are beyond sacred. They show me how wonderful God really is just by existing, let alone, allowing me to love them. ❤️
My body is literally burning. No cure for it, I'm told. It may be on this level of 'burning down the house' as metaphor is actually real at the same time. The divine famine is screaming out, surrounded by non-divine masculine who expected her to fix and save the literal and figurative leaking old house alone without getting hurt. I burn what appears and feels like slow death. Your truth is always beautiful and I thank you.
Love to join❤
❤💜🙏
Deeply inspiring. Thank you!
🧡💙🙏
Thank you Mirabai I sure needed these words today 💔
Yes, please. I would like to be part of the presentation as well. Thank you. Thank you
I would like to attend this 1 hour presentation on the feminine mystics, please!
thank you.
🧡💙🙏
Thank you Mirabai, you are an inspiration!
So glad you acknowledge the divine and mention God. I’ve listened to some about their views of the divine and they don’t believe in God. I have believed in God since my teenage years. I’ve had dark nights but not to the point where I don’t believe in God’s existence.
Yes. “The Mundane brimming with magic.” Yes.. in the messy realness of the day… yes… …thank you, Mirabai, I look forward to see your posts and to bring my own into the focus that is worthy of real life. Blessings
Thank you, Beloved.
Thank you for this beautiful reminder, Mirabai. 🙏🏻 For the past few years life has felt so hard in so many areas that I’d been unable to see the magic in the mundane. I’m trying to turn away from the hardness, leaning towards the softness, and finding my way back. I’m in the midst of working through your Embodied Writing, and finding the real me, my voice again has been a gift I needed right now. 🌷 -Tracy B. 💜
