I AM NOT A FASCIST—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine, August 8 •Though the desire to have others and the world be less messy, more orderly, and more to my liking is strong. Suppression of my hurt and my anger leads to an intolerance of these feelings in others and a need to impose order, control in ourselves, and on the women, children, men, and the world around me. In other words, fascism. Learning to hold space for the “unruliness” and seeming chaos of my “feminine” helps me to become, as it were, the antidote to the fascist impulse. This takes courage. But most of all, it takes nervous system training.

ENJOYING THIS MOMENT I AM WEALTHY BEYOND IMAGINING—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine, August 5 • Breathe. Receive. Breathe. Give. Allow this wealth of this life to circulate. Remember, that with every breath She brings me everything. And tenderly. Let this silence of breathing be full of unreasonable knowing, full of joy, full of this feeling of wealth: I have all that I need. I have more than enough, and I allow this wealth to flow freely through me, from me, around me… (for all of today’s chapter please email me at hans@sacredbodies.ca) ✨ ✨ ✨ #apprenticeshiptolove #morethanneeds #iamnotawarrior #pathofthesacredmasculine #husbandman #authenticrelationships #love #nervoussystem #devotion #surrender #choosevulnerability #wealth #truewealth #breathe https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg427LUOdKw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

HER GREATEST GIFT, MYSELF—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine, August 3 The Tantras, or sacred tantric texts, make it clear that the purpose of the relationship is for the mutual enlightenment of both persons involved. It cannot be for the ego-gratification of one person. ... Another principle ... is that the woman always takes the initiative in the Tantras. Always.

IT IS ONLY IN THIS SILENCE…—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine, August 2 •This wisdom, this treasure she brings to me is not transmitted by words or thinking, but in silence.

THIS DIFFICULTY IS MY ANSWER—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine, August 1 •I was reminded by a dear friend, as he expressed his impatience, that it is my own impatience that tells me I am nearest to that which I seek. My impatience then, is reason to be happy! So much for what I know about happiness. … (Want more of today’s #apprenticeshiptolove?

I AM NOT A WARRIOR—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine, July 29 •Imagine my surprise, as it dawns on me: Almost everything I have learned as a man in this culture is wrong. What now? Try softer? Indeed. Try softer, and discover this is the hardest work. (For more of today’s #apprenticeshiptolove chapter, please email me at hans@sacredbodies.ca) ps. Your devotion to being the man you are, the man your world needs, instead of the hollow man you were taught to be is heroic. It is not “Warrior.” It is much more heroic than that.

GRATEFUL FOR THIS SOLITUDE, THIS SILENCE—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine, July 28 • I am learning how hard it is, to take nothing for granted, yet to know that everything is here to nourish me. How to live this edge, where the old habits of the warrior are still strong, and the new habits of the husbandman still taking root? I listen to my beloved. I relish this solitude and this silence. I trust her as my Oracle, the doula to this unknown being birthed. And I breathe, learning to enjoy every tender, frightened moment.

TODAY I HAVE ENOUGH, AND I AM HAPPY—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine, July 27 • Humbly, I bow before the surfeit of love & sex that I have enjoyed and know that my appetite is only now satisfied, inspired by this love to become so much more than my appetite for more. I am not a warrior, here to take and conquer; I am the husbandman, holding this space safe for her blossoming, for the rare tart sweet of her fruits, ready in her time, in her solitude, her way. Not mine.

I AM THE ARTIST OF THIS HAPPINESS—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine, July 26 •I listen to a lot of men talk about their unhappiness. I hear very few men talk about their happiness. I’m not surprised. But this is why I teach. To help other men become the authors of their happiness. And, through teaching, to deepen my appreciation both of my happiness and my capacity to be the artist of this beautiful experiencing. So much seems to turn on this question of wanting, the unconscious decision to choose suffering over satiation. If any of this piques your curiosity, let’s talk. I’m looking for men who want to teach other men, and in the process teach themselves about being happy, being enough as a man. This is what I call the path of the sacred masculine. ✨ ✨ ✨ #apprenticeshiptolove #morethanneeds #iamnotawarrior #pathofthesacredmasculine #husbandman #authenticrelationships #love #nervoussystem #devotion #surrender #choosevulnerability #journeyofathousanddays #sacrifice #happiness #suffering #teaching #teachertraining https://www.instagram.com/p/CgfemRAOK21/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

WHAT IS THIS MAGIC?—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation & Practice for the Sacred Masculine, July 21 •From safe and silent awareness she brings me laughter, and deep appreciation. I am myself blossoming into tears as she reveals her tender, tender heart. Out of silence. Out of discipline. Out of steady and rooted and powerful presence.

I HAD NO IDEA—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation & Practice for the Sacred Masculine, July 19 • It’s true: I had no idea. No idea what she needs was giving me. No idea that I was so afraid to receive what she was giving me. No idea that, again, regret shows me more beauty than I can imagine. (there’s more… send me an email at hans@sacredbodies.ca for a lifetime subscription to these meditations, inspirations, and practices for the sacred masculine. In the meantime, here are two of today’s inspirations, from Katrine, from Preston… I hope they inspire you too, to allow yourself to be beautiful, to receive Her, fully) 🌀 Do you have any idea how beautiful you are, when you lean back and allow me to worship your magnificent xxxx? Do you understand what an deep honour it is to be allowed to devote my whole being to receive you in my xxxx and down my xxxx? The act of giving is actually melting away. It's only receiving and receiving. (Katrine, darkfemininedesire) 🌀The love from the divine feminine is all the divine masculine needs as a teacher, because it is all-encompassing. Its unforced & undemanding nature summon forth a life of deeper integrity & purpose. But the masculine has to be willing to receive it. If he's unwilling, he will be afraid & run. This is a sign that he is scared of his depth.

I TRUST HER TESTING TO REVEAL ME—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation & Practice for the Sacred Masculine, July 15 •And to you, men, I ask: Are you allowing her testing to show you how beautiful you are?

MY ACHING HEART SHOWS MY WAY—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation & Practice for the Sacred Masculine, July 14 •”I don’t want to lose control,” she says. My friend is finding her limits, her practice leading her into strange and dark unknowns. This is why I teach what I do, I say. To strengthen our sacred masculine capacity to hold safe space for Her -our own feminine, as well as the feminine all around us- to surrender into Her beautiful, “unmanaged,” radiance. To lose control, but to be held in a powerful presence that is trustworthy. This is why I practice. This is what I teach.

SHE, FROM WHOM ALL FLOWS—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation & Practice for the Sacred Masculine, July 13 •This day began, at 3:30am, with two hours of practice, a Kundalini Yoga masterclass to go “beyond polarities.” Thank you Tim and Marieke at the Kundalini Yoga School. Now, to know these polarities. To balance these polarities, of consciousness and of constant flow. To know that this is only the beginning of my art. And also, to know that to meditate on my beloved releases me to be the master of this art. This is the Path of the Sacred Masculine … (for more of today’s #apprenticeshiptolove meditation, inspirations, and practices please email me at hans@sacredbodies.ca) ✨ ✨ ✨ #apprenticeshiptolove #morethanneeds #iamnotawarrior #pathofthesacredmasculine #husbandman #authenticrelationships #love #nervoussystem #devotion #surrender #choosevulnerability #journeyofathousanddays https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf9cXSlOiM0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
