F9. The Renunciate

Faculty Sketch

F9. The Renunciate (The Pug) : our inner minimalist, the one who relinquishes the superfluous to practice simplicity, the one who desires to clean out materialism in an effort to ignite a transformational epiphany; a conscious choice to surrender the known for the unknown. The Renunciate is our inner ascetic that filters out the excess clutter for a moment or a millenium. To “affect alchemy” the renunciate shifts the level of aridity associated with the practice of letting go. Extending atonement begins with the compression of the identified excess, plenty of rest in the process and willingness to rock back and forth in the process of change. Practicing atonement by actively suspending a method-will over time- begin to transmute an aridity–related diet (white knuckled will-power) to an atonement-inspired divine detox (Willful Willingness). During this phase of change we can study the lives and works of Anne Frank, Eckhart Tolle, Patanjali and Federick Douglass for guiding wisdom. To further cultivate the shifting acuity of our renunciate we can repeat “Aum Shreem Maha Lakshmiyei Swaha” and master the placid hands mudra and the brown sphere yantra. “Keep the faith! Pace the form, grace the formless” becomes our living slogan. When we are fundamentally aligned in theory/heart we can go receptively amidst challenge/ease with our heads held high…
