At this retreat, participants learned about five unexpected pathways to wisdom: thought, judgment, pain, helplessness, and confusion. These five pathways are usually thought of as obstacles. With just the slightest shift it is seen that an obstacle becomes a pathway.
With this reflections program, we had the opportunity to hear some of the takeaways, and challenges, and about how these obstacles mentioned above are being used to help the participant in their journey of awakening and healing.
