What is Divine Friendship? According to my teacher Davidji in his new book Sacred Powers “When the exchange of selfless care flows two ways without any score keeping, you have evolved to this state of love…in this state of Divine Friendship two awakened hearts beat as one. Built on an understanding of wholeness and a belief in the Sacred Power of Abundance, in Divine Friendship both awakened hearts are in recognition that their combined love will always equal more than the whole. This requires unconditional trust that there will be an ever-flowing current of love passing back and forth between the two. When one person is weak, the other is strong and vice versa. Divine Friendship evolves over time, as trust builds. In this state of love, each person interacts with the same grace and ease as your right hand and your left hand–they can work independently or together, but they never work against each other. Their trust in each other is pure, unwavering, unconditional, and free of judgment. This state of love can exist at the workplace as well as in the home as the awakened hearts of Divine Friendship are always rooting for each other to succeed.”

Do you have any Divine Friendships? I must say I feel SO blessed that I truly have many Divine Friendships…Friendship is one of my Sacred Values and like attracts like…so I am feeling very grateful and very loved right now. I am blessed and I bow to you.

The above picture is from last years Five Elements Harmony Yoga Retreat.I bow to all of you who shared in this Divine Friendship, always.
