Awakening Your Intuitive Knowing, Part VIII
This is Part VIII of a ten part blog. Part I begins on 10/15/07. In order to better understand what follows, it would be best to read the previous parts.
But other things happened during this experience of the “Embrace.” I, also, made the determination and the clear intention at that time that this is what I am here not only to experience personally, but also to share with others.

And then a voice drifted into my consciousness and said, “This is the sound of one hand clapping.” This phrase is the famous Zen koan: “What is the sound of one hand clapping?
