Balancing Being with Doing

A woman asks how to balance being with active expression, noting a tendency to become unresponsive when deeply in being. Rupert suggests setting aside dedicated times for formal practice, while developing the art of remaining in touch with being during activity – ‘praying without ceasing’. Through direct experiment during their exchange, the woman experiences maintaining connection with being while actively conversing. Rupert encourages viewing difficult interactions as opportunities to strengthen this capacity in challenging circumstances.
