The Power of Love

It is our human birthright, born of the very essence of existence, which loves because it is love…Innocent, orgasmic, radiant, this is a realm of stillness, fullness, bathed in silence, where resonant musical soul refrains unfuld your most tender inner petals of being…There are no imposed rules, no enforced boundaries, no narrow definitions to measure yourself against.  Everything just is, and is embraced gently in loving arms.

It is a place of nonachievement, of giving in, letting go, surrendering, of crying tender tears for all those places that still feel hurt, unworthy, unloved.  It is a place to be real, to be free, to relax fully into the heart.  It is an invitation to passionately love yourself and others with wanton abandon, in pleasure, trust, and heart bursts of gratitude.  It is a place to truly COME ALIVE.

– Womb Awakening, Azra & Seren Bertrand

Love is our essential nature, and the most natural thing in existence is to make love and enjoy the paradise of the sensory earth…

Everybody on earth is born to love.  Even the most tyrannical dictator was once a baby who gurgled with innocent delight in the cradle.  It’s the way of life that each of us is loaded with a portion of past human ignorance, which will manifest as the challenges and difficulties we all have to face.  The love inherent within the body is the power which will be called upon to counteract and transform these negative effects of the past…

The truth is that it doesn’t matter what happens in the outer world, except as an effect in time of something greater behind the appearance of form – the reality within the being, which is the gateway to the immortal realm.  What obscures this inner vision is the attachment to the belief that there’s something more important to do than to discover the fulfillment of love as an enduring state.  Everything else eventually fades and dies.

— Making Love Real: In a loveless world; Lance Kelly

Much of the humane collective’s concepts of love are very limited and distorted.  There are many faces of love.  Love can be soft, but love can also be firece, like a mother protecting her young.  Sometimes love comes through acceptance and sometimes through drawing a line.  Sometimes it’s intimate and sometimes we have to love from a distance.  Sometimes love is passionate and at other times is not.  Love transcends differences; we may not agree, we may not like each other, but we can choose to love each other anyway.

Women have the potential to be the physical embodiment of Universal Love on Earth.  Through this power we are connected directly to Source.  Due to our twisted notions of romantic love, we have become disconnected from our source.  We have forgotten that we are the embodiment of the supreme power lying behind all of the forces in the universe.  The embodiment of Universal Love and Wisdom on this planet is the antidote to the negative ego and key to uniting the Hearts of Humanity.

Loving Presence

“Tend to your local place. Teach others to tend to theirs, and soon all will be tended to. Humans and ecosystems will feel cared for and things will be different.  It calms everyone and everything to be held in such a matrix (womb) of care. If we can hold space, others may experience a sense of belonging within the space we have created.”

— Teachings From The Trees, Theresa C. Dintino

Two of the most undervalued and unacknowledged, yet most powerful actions we can carry out are holding space and showing caring attention in all of our efforts.  Bearing witness to another’s experience with loving presence and care is the single most profound act we can offer another being for healing.

This sounds deceivingly simple.  To hold space requires a certain level of self-mastery, personal responsibility, integrity, wisdom and patience.  One must be compassionate, yet wise to the tricks of the ego, distortions of the human mind, and manipulation of emotion; remaining perfectly clear and still in order to be effective.

This brings us to the courage, strength and fearlessness necessary for cultivating deep compassion.  Compassion in the western mind brings up images of softness, gentleness, maybe even naivity, but this is far from a full picture of compassion.  Cultivating genuine compassion requires facing rigorous trials of your deepest fears,  being willing to look upon the most horrendous atrocity imaginable in complete nuetrality and to continously allow your heart to be broken open to LET MORE LOVE IN.

The Power of Beauty

“Find what is beautiful for you and you will find your truth.  Find your truth and you will find your power.”

“When I speak of finding your power in life, I am not talking of power over anyone else.  I am talking about the power of the INTEGRITY of your own spirit, a power which is awakened by beauty.  It is the greatest power you can ever develop, born as it is from the love of the Great Spirit.  Then you can accomplish anything that you set your mind and your heart to accomplish.”

— Coming Full Cirlce, Lynn V. Andrews

Beauty is the finer essence behind form that stirs the soul.  Beauty is ALIVE…it’s in-spirited.  It can’t quite be defined because it comes in many forms, but we all know it when we experience it.  Sometimes beauty is light and lovingly gently like the giggle of a small child; sometimes it catches us off guard, like when life isn’t going as planned, and we don’t know what to do, but we look up and see a shooting star.  Sometimes on this path we have to search for Beauty In The Dark.  No matter what language we speak or culture we come from, we can all identify beauty because it is the language of the human heart.

Sacred Union

“Tantra is the journey of the Soul to bring masculine and feminine polarities into wholeness, love, unity and empowerment…Walking this path authentically is a choice to live in dedication to the sacred work of healing the relationship between masculine and feminine consciousness.”

Men and Women, the masculine and feminine principles, are opposites, but complimentary expressions of divininty (“Di”–2).  It is helpful to think of the yin-yang symbol when approaching the balance.  The white has a little black dot, while the black has a small white dot, and they dance together as a whole.  What has not been mentioned, is the size of each person’s dots may be different.  What is a balance for one individual, may not be balance for another; this is part of our own beautiful expression and unique journey to our center; our personal embodiment of the infinite possible expressions of the Divine.  It is our own unique frequency blend contributing to the Art of Life.

First, we must explore the interplay of energies within to find this balance within ourselves and harmonize masculine-feminine, dark-light, mind-body, inner-outer worlds, sexuality-spirituality, etc…”As these energies come into mutual respect and balance, we attain great power, presence and healing effect in the world of the Soul and in the human world of forms here on this Earth” (Isis Oracle, Scales of Balance, Alana Fairchild).  This is the sacred work for men and women on the planet at this time.  The true power of the feminine has, yet to be fully recognized on an individual and collective level, and this must be brought into full awareness before we can move into Unity with Wisdom.

“The Priestess is the bridge between the human and the Goddess, just as the trees are the bridge between the stars and the Earth.

Humans need the love of the Goddess…The Goddess wants to hold the tears of her children. She wants to comfort them and embrace them with something bigger. She holds the bigger picture. She is the larger story.

This is a love that needs to be channeled through the bodies of her priestesses into this world. This is the love everyone is looking for. Priestesses can open the gates to this love for the good of all beings.

The wild and forbidden female is the node. This is the call of the Priestess”
