Susanne Marie ~ The Paradox of Being and Becoming
Sunday, January 25, 2026 @ 9:00am-11:00am (Pacific Time)
Event Navigation
“Always being, always becoming” speaks to something quietly and profoundly true. Within us is an aspect that has never changed, already whole, complete, and present, even as life continues to unfold, evolve, and express itself. Awakening does not bring our human unfolding to an end. Rather, it reveals becoming as a natural expression of being.
Being and becoming are like the two wings of a bird. Without being, human becoming can lose its balance and become caught in endless striving, risking getting lost in experience. Without becoming, being has no place to land, no ground through which it can learn and grow, our human potential manifesting in the world.
Together, we will sit with this simple and liberating truth:
you are always becoming what you already are.
