Supporting Non-Duality and Awakening in Asheville and Beyond
CONVERSATIONS WITH YIN AND YANG: THE COURAGE IN INTIMACY
(C) 2010 Howard McQueen
prompting the discovery and reclamation
of restricted inner territories.
The constrictions of personal mind
clenched around fear, hurt and discomfort
the trauma of stored childhood imprinting
invited to be unlocked and freed.
YANG'S Deep discomfort turns toward
his natural groove of habitually expressing
withdrawal, followed by aggression.
YIN"S provoked discomfort is felt as rejection and abandonment
Both feel deeply the hot and cold
currents of separation,
this profound breech of continuity
in their love-fest.
Their pain bodies are triggered
into this raw drama dance
and momentarily,
what seemed only the slightest of a gap
appears to widen into this torrential river of an impasse,
this great gorge
this maw of fear,
these inner wounds being probed and picked at.
YIN and YANG slip-slide down the slope
of their respective despair.
Dark brooding emotions flood their landscape,
The choice to navigate back into the light and brightness is lost ...
temporarily
YANG calls forth to YIN to raise up her spirit warrior
to meet,
in inquiry,
his aggression.
Ahhh!
The next morning YANG awakens
safe and secure in the world.
By mid-afternoon, this continuity
is so contagious
YIN fills in, blossoming
and again,
both are in honeymoon
a great deal wiser,
knowing to meet and inquire into their dark energies.
meeting them more than half-way into the dark recesses
now illuminated by the found courage of attention and intention.
