The Hero's Journey

07 — Challenges

An Original Exploration · 2010

Some people describe moving with ease between the two: the normal and special worlds, real life and magical life, 3-dimensional and non-dimensional existence.

You may want to stay there, creating and living from the special world. If you do, a second and major set of challenges may arise.

If the two modes of experience feel seamless and simultaneous, you may find yourself trying to bring what feels non-dimensional into everyday 3D life.

How long will this take?

Expect years. From the beginning to “full circle”, the process may take several years. For some, it may continue as a seven-to-ten-year cycle; it may also happen more quickly. The original account describes one 20-year-old moving through the process unusually quickly and suggests the hundredth monkey syndrome as a possible explanation.

So what’s after the challenges? Well, I’ll come back and tell you later. Better still, follow our journey on this website as the postings unfold.
