In this episode of Awakening Streams, we explore how missteps, mistakes, and perceived failures are not obstacles but integral parts of the path. Drawing on Zen teachings and real-life examples, Sensei Michael reflects on the importance of embracing our imperfections with clarity and compassion. By shifting our perspective, we can see that each misstep holds the potential for growth and transformation, helping us connect more deeply with our true nature. Whether it's a stumble in practice or a detour in life, every step is an expression of our being-time, offering a chance to wake up and fully engage with the present moment. Tune in for an insightful discussion that invites you to let go of self-judgment and walk the path with an open heart!
