All you need is the entire universe

Your body and your personality, that is you being human. But you’re also something else. When you take a deep breath and close your eyes, a universe opens up - and you know that you are that, too: you are a divine soul containing the entire universe.

It often feels things are beyond your control, though. You can’t help being human, you can’t change the person you are, and your body, well, you can exercise and eat healthy things and don’t ingest junk, but beyond that, what can you do? And maybe you feel the same thing goes for this divine presence you feel inside. You know it’s there, but you just feel like a spectator witnessing a raging storm of feelings.

Now, I’ve come to tell you that nothing you’ve done thus far, nothing you believe, and even the things you think are absolutely true - none of that matters. They don’t matter, because the entire world is a flowing stream of energy and you are a part of that energy. Even the worst mistakes you’ve ever made and the most brilliant thoughts you’ve ever put into practice; all these things are insights for you to learn from.

And the main thing you have to learn, the main thing we all have to learn, is to find the perfect balance between our personality on the one hand, and our divine soul on the other hand; and in finding that perfect balance, the body is your guide, your messenger, and ultimately your very own portal to the realm of infinite possibility.

And that, dear friends, is why I’ve created UM DA - Meditative Flogging. Meditative Flogging is a prayer that leads your mind away from all your worries, and that leads your body away from this all-too human material reality. In flogging you can find pure bliss, you can find your body has the capacity to create your very own realm of peace, love, and an understanding that is beyond words.

You can learn to give your partner these experiences, and your partner can learn how to give these experiences to you. And when you learn this, and when you’ve experienced this, you know that that perfect balance between living in this material world and being a part of all the energy of the entire Cosmos - you can find that balance, and then you carry the lived reality of this balance with you out into the world, and then this world, YOUR world, changes from merely being something you go through into a profound learning opportunity. And all that you do and all you’ve ever done, and all the things you believe - all these are fuel for you to become what you are: you are a shining light, a perfectly balanced beacon in a sea of infinite possibility.

And that’s why I say: let’s all learn Meditative Flogging today. Let’s create new communities, and new opportunities for learning. Let’s use these magnificent bodies of ours to find that all you need is love, and all the love you need already lives inside of you.
