Expansion and contraction is the seeming movement of life. But is this the way of things, or is this just the apparent reality when one lives in a state of duality and separation? In this episode, Bird and Henry share how the process of realizing Truth is actually the discarding of the concepts of expansion and contraction, but how from a dualistic perspective, freedom (which is really just a lack of contraction) feels like an expanded state. We're not here to wake you up, to enlighten you, or to heal you. Our invitation is to come and see for yourself what's True. Welcome back to the void!
