Highlights
We mark the Winter Solstice.
Is darkness meant to be eliminated?
We consider the Source and the fountain out of which life flows and emerges into structure and form.
Who breaks your heart wide open…?
Guided Reflection
If possible, use headphones.
Cited Quotations
When, in the way we have just explained, Christ’s human reality was planted, in death, right at the heart of the world, within the deepest stratum of the universe, the stratum that unites at root bottom all that the world is, at that moment in his bodily humanity he became the real ontological ground of a new universal scheme of salvation embracing the whole human race.
Henceforth, all men without exception can enter into bodily contact with Christ, and precisely by means of the cosmic reality with which each man is so intimately connected.
Ladislaus Boros
His student said to him,
“So, tell us, then, what our end and destiny will be?”
Yeshua answered,
“Have you already discovered your origin,
so that you are now free to seek after your end?
It is only at your source that you will find your destiny.
Blessed are those who come to stand
in their place of origination,
for it is there that they will know their end--
never tasting death.”
Logion 18, Gospel of Thomas
Reflection Questions
If the upwelling of life into separate forms and structures from its unitive Source were to be transacted in your body, where in your body might this be sensed…?
What might your “oakness” be…? What might that look like from the outside and what might it feel like from the inside…?
Who breaks your heart wide open…? How do you experience that in your body…?
