David Bowie Said It……

04/21/2015 by Aruni

Remember this great song?  I never quite got the lyrics, but was mesmerized by and strangely committed to the ch-ch-ch-bit:

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-Changes
Don’t want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-Changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can’t trace time

Life just keeps coming and oh, it keeps growing us!  It comes to melt away all the parts of us that we no longer need.  What is this moment but yet another profound and damn opportunity to grow?

Big ch-ch-ch-ch-changes in my world.

The Inner Quest Intensive, one of the three massive commitments/tethers in my life, has been unmoored.  It will no longer be offered at Kripalu Center, its home for several decades.  I am slowly recovering from this surprise/trauma, and realizing that nothing, NOTHING was taken from me.  I was given by the universe that which is truly mine.

A new freedom emerges, along with its surrounding terror.

The Inner Quest will morph into an even more magnificent, even more empowering process for folks up ahead.  Of this, I am certain.  Its essence will live on, through the commitment of its brilliant core team, in forms yet imagined.

Keep tuned.

Other ch-ch-ch-ch-changes tumble behind this one.

My profound loyalty to the organization that has grown me shifts into the zone of liability.  I need to imagine myself and my work outside those walls.  Hence, this site will be renewed and reinvented.
As will I.  Kicking and screaming, I leave the nest.

David says, “…gonna have to be a different man”.

Aruni says, “…gonna have to become more of who I really am.”

Well.  What is there to say?

Keep tuned.
