I believe that spiritual resistance is about staying true to our core beliefs despite external pressures to give in. It is rooted in our ability to confront life's difficulties with inner strength and conviction. This resilience is nurtured through the quiet listening to nature—listening to the land, the river, and the rocks—which helps us connect deeply with the earth's timeless presence.

There is a sense of humility that develops from this bond with nature, evolving as we spend time alone in stillness, especially in the desert. These moments of solitude allow us to internalize this quiet resistance and reinforce our spiritual endurance, drawing from the earth's calm and enduring wisdom.
