In this bonus episode Richard, Brie, and Paul recorded their conversation remotely from the confines of their own homes during the pandemic COVID-19. This episode is the first of two on how reality is initiating us into a new paradigm. This shared moment in time drew out Richard's reflections on the five essential messages of initiation.

The five essential messages of initiation are:

1) Life is hard.

2) You are not that important.

3) Your life is not about you.

4) You are not in control.

5) You are going to die.

In the midst of this pandemic we hold you in contemplative solidarity and prayer for safety, rest, and renewal.
