I really enjoyed reading this. Coincidentally I just finally started reading Piko last night (ahhh, a temporary lay-off and able to enjoy winter things!) I very much relate to the struggle with subservience and the emotional cost it adds to everything. But the essay was a cliff hanger! How will you incorporate more Mystic into your daily life?

Sorry to leave you hanging on a cliff! I'm not sure how. It feels like something that can't be forced, but I do know it happens when I make myself available. The. Block Island years I didn't have to do that because it was just in the air, but in the "real" world it has to be cultivated, so I guess that's where my focus is, staying open to wonder and awe and being able to see what's happening in my daily life from many different perspectives that help me be aware of how everything is connected.
