Step Into The Liminal To See Clearly
- Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee frames the liminal as the space between an ending world and an emerging one that demands our attention.
- He says stepping into this space requires consciously leaving the old story to see and act differently.
Consciously Let Go Of Old Patterns
- Acknowledge that one world has ended and consciously let go of its patterns to avoid bringing them into the new space.
- Freeing yourself mentally creates the space to perceive differently and to witness without being caught.
Witnessing Breaks Open The Heart
- Witnessing unfolding ecological and cultural collapse must be done with mature attention that avoids being trapped by fear.
- Vaughan-Lee argues bearing witness breaks open the heart and creates capacity to act usefully.
