The real work of manifestation is to weave these strands of your life into a "Temple of Beauty" that can sustain you beyond ego-based narratives of dominance and survival and beyond romantic fantasies of lack and longing. It is about learning to trust the practice of opening yourself, heart-first, to all of existence and letting your experience of who you are, what you are doing, and where you are going expand into its natural flowering.
