Two disciples listen and understand. The next day they scan the crowd and recognize him by his way of being— of breathing, of listening, of looking, of moving. They wait all day until he withdraws. They follow him and, catching up with him, question him: “Master, where do you dwell? Where do you remain? Where is your being rooted? From where do you drink? On what do you feed? What is the secret that makes it so that, since the moment we saw you, we have been unable to stop following you?” This is what has happened to us with ROOTED ALCHEMY!!! 😑🙏🏻🦋🧎🏻‍♂️
