'25 8/8 Portal.
Celebrated the 9th year of this book 4 days ago, but I am formally — if not theatrically —writing this post on this 8/8 day because number 8 is a very special number to me, there's like a motif of 8 inscribed on my fate being an 8th child, born in the 8th month and with a life path number 8.
This book is a physical manifestation of my gradual encounter with the most intimate bond of my heart— the center of being— and infinity both within and beyond myself. This book will always be a feat of alchemy, a miracle of turning painful confusions into epiphanies.
I have rarely talked about this book these past years because sometimes it still feels unreal, and when I get common questions such as why I published it, how much I've been earning from selling it, what inspired me to write it, what was the process of publishing it...all I can respond is a shrug or an awkward chuckle.
Truth is, you can't simply explain the work of the Divine just like you can never hold the entire universe, there's only infinity that provides a seemingly-useless but substantially-mysterious answer of "I don't know".
So I don't know what I'm doing at the moment and I don't know what this means but here goes the link to my vast unknown:

Infinitely,
