Stories we love

Yesterday, I was learning about Joseph Campbell and I came across the story of the Golden Buddha

Reader, why this story matters?

I'm speaking to a shared human experience that ,we all have moments in life when we feel stuck, weighed down by layers of expectations, beliefs, and experiences that make us forget who we truly are.

This story is a reminder that gold exists in all of us, and all we have to do is chip away at the layers of protection and conditioning, the mud.

The Story of the Golden Buddha:

Many years ago in Thailand, there was a temple known as the Temple of the Golden Buddha. It housed a magnificent, giant Golden Buddha statue. However, when word spread that an invading army was approaching, the monks decided to protect the statue by covering it with mud and concrete, making it appear like an ordinary stone statue.

Years passed, and the army occupied the area, and no one remembered that the Buddha was golden beneath its heavy layer of mud. Until one day, a young monk noticed a crack in the hardened mud. He saw something shiny underneath and realized there was gold hiding beneath the layers of mud. As he and the other monks chipped away at it, they uncovered the brilliant, golden statue that had always been there.

This story is a beautiful metaphor for our lives. We are all born golden, full of potential, creativity, and authentic power. But over time, layers of expectations, beliefs, and life’s hardships create a hardened shell that makes us forget our true nature. We begin to believe that we are the "stone" rather than the "gold."

How Microdosing Helps Us Remove the Mud:

Just like the young monk who discovered the gold beneath the mud, microdosing can act as a catalyst to crack open the layers that have built up around us. Here's how:

• Revealing the Gold: Microdosing gently chips away at the hardened layers of conditioning, allowing us to see glimpses of our true selves. It brings moments of clarity where we recognize that we are more than the limitations we’ve imposed upon ourselves.
• Accessing Deeper Awareness: When we microdose, we often experience a shift in perception, where old patterns, fears, and stories start to lose their grip. It’s like a light shining through the cracks, illuminating the gold that’s been hidden for so long.
• Facilitating Inner Exploration: Microdosing allows us to go inward, to explore the parts of ourselves we may have buried or ignored. It helps us navigate the journey of self-discovery, providing the courage to chip away at the concrete and reveal what lies beneath.

Invitation to Reflect and Take Action:

As you read this, I invite you to ask yourself: What concrete layers have I built around myself? What beliefs, fears, or expectations have I accepted as my reality? And most importantly, are you ready to start chipping away at them?
