🤔 Maybe all religion is a collective reflection of christ consciousness wanting to rise. Good post thank you Fathy.

Nice post Fathy... This is my no1 lesson... ​In the daily grind, we're constantly reacting to emails, traffic, and "what-if" scenarios. We mistake our internal chatter for reality. But when you step away and the noise dies down, you realize how much of your stress is just a story you've written. Here are a few other big realizations.... ​Silence isn't empty. At first, the lack of noise feels itchy and uncomfortable. You might even hate it. But then, you start to notice it's actually full of insights you were too busy to hear. ​Presence is a choice. We spend so much time "doing" that we forget how to "be." A retreat forces you to realize that being present doesn't require a special mountain—it just requires you to stop running. ​You're more resilient than you think. Sitting with your own thoughts without the buffer of a phone or a TV is hard. It's really hard. But when you make it to the other side, you feel a kind of quiet strength you didn't know you had. ​The "stuff" doesn't matter. You arrive with a suitcase and leave realizing you could probably live out of a backpack. The simplicity of a retreat makes your cluttered life back home look a bit ridiculous.
