Module 4: You Are the One Who Calls the Wind and the Water
The One Who Blesses Workshop
What can break our argument with reality?
How will we ever return to the spring of bright blessing?
Hello, love — Welcome to Module Four.
This week, we turn toward the quietest place inside us—the one that never left the womb of belonging. Together, we’ll look at the ways we argue with reality, and the ancient practices that help us return to presence, connection, and trust. We’ll explore the words bracha and gāthā, the blessing and the song, and follow the threads that they weave through story, dream, memory, and attention.
You’ll be invited to try one simple, daily practice. To bless a wound. To write your own gāthā. To listen for the quieter voice. Just one gesture of presence can change the way the world moves around you.
Blessings, big love.

Module Four
You Are the One Who Calls the Wind and Water
Modern life is, in so many ways, a never-ending argument with reality.
We argue with the weather—too hot, too cold, too damp, too dry. We argue with traffic, with train delays, with the slow line at the store. We argue with our boss’s expectations, our children’s endless needs, our partners’ lack of listening. We stare at our screens, arguing: why is the world this way? Why is everyone so fake?
But all of these outer arguments mirror a deeper, more persistent one:
This should be easier.
I should feel more comfortable.
I need more than I have.
Underneath it all is a trembling, primal ache:
I feel afraid.
I feel alone.
Something is missing.
Something is wrong.
There is another way to live.
