Dealing with Shame at a root level

Thank you for finding and sharing this thread.

The OP illustrated this beautiful dance with shame along one's journey. Although shame is regarded as an unpleasant energy, the dance that the OP described is beautiful in its own way.

It makes me curious about how seeds are planted within us, when they are first planted in us, and how our MBS - like soil - may reject or accept these seeds.
