To exist means to exist transgradiently.
~
Our health is dependent upon our ability to shift spontaneously from one reality to another. When we identify with (hold on to) a reality on a particular level, that holding effects our physiology at every level.
~
For example, if we refute emotions as being illogical, we suppress a reality of our being. This sort of suppression causes dis-ease. We refute another level when we don’t cultivate the ability to think rationally, again causing disharmony. When we feel that unease, we conclude that we must improve our ability to function in our reality. Such a reaction only perpetuates the process. As the result of our identification with particular realities, our lives become ever-tightening spirals.
~
To counter the tightening process we need to learn to rest into our transgradient nature, our natural state of being. This kind of “resting into” is more easily said than done because we hold on to our ideas of reality not just with our minds but with our bodies and hearts as well. This holding permeates all levels of our physiology—physical, energetic, psychological and spiritual—so completely that we assume the holding is who we are.

To become wiser, we don’t need to get better at what we know as much as we need to stop holding on so tightly to what it is we think we know.
