Imagine yourself in one of the most surreal places in Colorado. The locals call it Graffiti Falls. Where Artists and Punks alike come to show off their talent with a spray can. The only sounds are that of the wildlife, the wind and water fleeing off the cliff side to create an enormous waterfall.
Suddenly the peacefulness is shaken by screams and roars, simply because YOU are becoming part of the Tranquil Family. You are knee deep in 40 degree water while a constant downpour of icy liquid fists comes crashing down! Its only agenda is to crush you and force you to surrender. As you stand under the beast, you begin to ask yourself, “Why did I agree to do this!?!?” The answer is simple. You were looking for peace.
We call it the Tranquil Waterfall. Why? Well, it represents all of your fears, doubts, hate, stress, pain, confusion, etc. It literally rains them down onto you, forces you to acknowledge them and it becomes up to you how much they control your life. To complete the Tranquil Initiation, you must stand beneath it for 30 seconds, because within those 30 seconds…3 things will happen
1) Your brain is flooded with negative thoughts and you be in a constant battle with yourself to stay put
2) You will accept the pain you are experiencing and let go of your hardship(most people scream it out)
3) You will exit the confines of the waterfall and be reborn. You will look back and smile. You will do this because you have learned how to control your mind and know that no matter how negative life may get, you know that you can take it head on and it will never break you.
When you have accomplished this challenge, you will forever be a member of the Tranquil Family.
