Grappling with the challenges and opportunities that the global world offers arrived at healing trauma and
elevating my life experience.
Dear readers, welcome to my site.
In INTUITION AND REASON I summarize the organic process that guides me in the practical application of the intuitive and rational while searching to find what is behind two emotions that, since early childhood, marked my life experience, fear and harmony.
This, long-life process of introspection has been one of deep and intense involvement with the world, including more than three decades of exhaustive fieldwork in education. There, while involving thousands of people from all levels of society, I learned that fear is the mother of prejudice and the root of the pain and suffering that characterizes the human condition.
Then, when I heard 8 to 12 years old children speak with disappointment and hopelessness about the consequences of this reality on the state of the heart, my entire being stopped dead. There was urgency in the air and I couldn't even breathe anymore.
Without knowing where else to search, I fell into the abyss. My life had radically changed.
In darkness I entered an inner journey where two revelations gave shape and content to the search that continued for another long decade.
A solution came after executing the practical application of two more revelations, the decoding of an oracle -an object that appeared early in the journey- and the integration of my life story since birth.
On BOOK I share excerpts of the loving, penetrating, tortuous and transcendental journey that manifests in the experience of suffering , surviving, and transcending trauma while in the roles of daughter, artist, seeker, cultural activist, public figure, community leader, educator , mystic and author. This work continues today.
On BLOG, in words and photos, I share what intuitive and rational experience communicate as I continue my life's journey.
In EVENTS I share moments of in-person and online presentations.
Dear reader, I am originally from Bogotá, Colombia. I live in the USA since 1981. My life is healthy, peaceful and joyful. I share it with and am nurtured by my husband of more than 40 years, friends and the sun, the moon, the stars, the oceans and all forms of life.
I invite you to read these pages. Perhaps you find in them resonance that can help your journey towards living in harmony and inner peace.
From the heart,
Aura Camacho-Maas
