I honor my teachers, guides and mentors

My path has been shaped through years of devoted study, apprenticeship, and transmission within living spiritual traditions. I am guided by elders, mentors, and lineage holders who have carried these teachings across generations.

I am also spiritually guided by archetypal goddesses who inspire my practice: Xi Wang Mu (西王母) for her wise counsel, Guan Shi Yin (觀世音) for her compassionate nurturing, and Tara or Dumu (度母) for her discerning medicine.

I honor the Dao — the Great Mother whose elemental forces initiate me through synchronicities, challenges, and the unfolding path of life.
