Is there anyone who doesn’t love the sunrise? Between the night and the day, there is this transformational moment. The whole sky transforms. A quiet shift. Colours spread slowly, light pours in. If you are there—truly there—not with your mind chattering, but simply witnessing, you will be pulled into it. This divine dance is one of the beautiful transformational moments in the sky.
You know this if you have ever been swimming. You cannot just jump into the water and become a swimmer. You flounder at first, use floats, coaches, techniques—all crutches. And then, suddenly, one moment arrives. There is that transformation. Your first real swim. The body defies gravity; the mind forgets fear. You are in a dance with the water—an overcoming of something unknown. A tremendous ease arises.
Between night and day.
Between learner and swimmer.
Between chrysalis and butterfly.
There exists a short moment—the in-between. The transformational moment, that is the elixir of this life, your life.
Night is long. Day is long. But dawn is very short. I am speaking of the moment that comes after all your efforts and just before the fruit appears. Heaviness suddenly drops away, and peace descends into your whole being. You know this experience. Yes, I can’t explain it in words.
Rigidity makes you miss these moments. Your rules, your “this is who I am” convictions—they quietly turn into prisons. They feel safe, but they also trap you. When you loosen them—even slightly—something opens. You notice things you did not see before. Inside you. Around you. Somewhere there, your new transformational moment is waiting.
Do not stop with just one. You have already lived through many, from a single cell in the womb to the vast complexity of the person you are now. Your transformational moments are the beauty of your life. You need more of them, because this is how a life is best lived in this world.
So, attune yourself.
Rise.
Reach new heights.
