I have learned so much (by Hafiz)
I
Have
Learned
So much from God
That I can no longer
Call
Myself
A Christian, a Hindu, a Muslim,
A Buddhist, a Jew.
The Truth has shared so much of Itself
With me
That I can no longer call myself
A man, a woman, an angel,
Or even pure
Soul.
Love has
Befriended Hafiz so completely
It has turned to ash
And freed
Me
Of every concept and image
My mind has ever known.

A tribute to the Divine Mother
In the Chinese culture, male and female principles are called Yin and Yang. In the Vedic culture, they are named Shiva and Shakti. We call God feminine and masculine because as human beings we have feminine aspects (right brain) and masculine aspects (left brain) as subtle inner dualities that together make us whole.
Honoring the Divine Mother means remembering the feminine aspects of God: total acceptance, compassion, forgiveness, and unconditional love. If that is what we need to balance the Earth today, then we need to start by balancing those energies within ourselves.
"Historically peace came where the Divine Mother was worshipped by both men and women, who ruled together as equals. No one dominated anyone. When we speak of the Divine Mother, we are referring to the original spark of creation, which is a feminine aspect. The prime creator behind all things is a female vibration. The Divine Mother is the feminine aspect of God, or better said to be, the ‘intelligence behind the matter’. Einstein knew this.”
— (Sondra Ray, Healing and Holiness 2002).
The Divine Mother is the inner guiding power. She is our innate creativity and is the source of Life within us. Understanding of Her reveals Her Bliss.
