A. Book of Chants
An economic-political male power is fundamentally
suffering
from perfidious conception of the community, of the position of the woman.
'Iblīs1
and his wife' are made an idol, the own children sacrificed
to 'mammon'2.
Men's soulless eros, 'demon
between the mortal and the immortal'
(Plato), in the pact
with the reactive sexus of feminist mothers3,
has
provoked this.
1When your Lord said to the angels: »I will create man from clay.
When I have moulded him and breathed into him of My spirit, then fall and
prostrate yourselves before him.« Then the angels all prostrated themselves together,
except Iblis; he was haughty and was one of the disbelievers. (Qur'an 38:71-74)2No servant can serve two masters; he will either hate the one and love the other
or he will stand by the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both,
God and mammon. (Luke 16:13)3Herodias' daughter went forth and asked her mother, 'What shall I wish for?'
Herodias replied, 'The head of John the Baptist.' (Mark 6:24)
Feminine action in intelligent uncertainty not only enforces karma for
oneself – it directly influences 'afflictions of the Earth'1.
'Community in reverence of the religious and spiritual feminine ideal',
not only defines the dwelling of our human spirit in dialogue: It is the
rock foundation on which the Planetary Consciousness of humanity rests.
1Escape, people of Benjamin, get out of Jerusalem! Blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and raise a signal on Beth-haccherem! For evil looms out of the north, and great destruction. The lovely and delicately bred I will destroy, the daughter of Zion. Shepherds with their flocks shall come to her; they shall pitch their tents around her; they shall pasture, each in his place. Proclaim the holy war against Zion! Arise! Let us attack at noon! – Woe to us: the day is already drawing to a close, the evening shadows are stretching out. Up! Let us attack by night and destroy her palaces! For thus says the Lord of hosts: Cut down her trees and raise up a wall against Jerusalem! This is the city of which it has been proven that everything in it is oppression. As a fountain gushes forth its waters, so she gushes forth her wickedness: violence and destruction are heard within her; sickness and wounds are ever before me. Be warned, Jerusalem, lest I turn from you in disgust, lest I make you a desolation, an uninhabited land. Thus says the Lord of hosts: They shall glean thoroughly as a vine the remnant of Israel; like a grape gatherer pass your hand again over its branches. To whom shall I speak and give warning, that they may hear? Behold, their ears are uncircumcised, they cannot listen; behold, the word of the Lord is to them an object of scorn; they take no pleasure in it. – Pour it out upon the children in the street, and upon the gatherings of young men, also; both husband and wife shall be taken, the elderly and the very aged. Their houses shall be turned over to others, their fields and wives together, for I will stretch out my hand against the inhabitants of the land, declares the Lord. From the least to the greatest, all are greedy for gain; prophets and priests alike, all practise deceit. They want to heal the wound of my people lightly, saying, Peace, peace, when there is no peace. They should be ashamed for they committed abomination? No, they were not at all ashamed; they did not know shame. Therefore they shall fall among those who fall; at the time that I punish them, they shall be overthrown, says the Lord. (Jeremiah 6,1-15)
From out of the city the dying groan, the lives of the
slain cry out loudly.
But God pays no heed to their pleas.
(Job 24:12)
As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it and said, If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace – but now it is hidden from your eyes. For the days will come upon you, when your enemies will set up a barricade around you and surround you and hem you in on every side and tear you down to the ground, you and your children, and they will not leave one stone upon another in you, because you did not know the time of your visitation. (Luke 19:41-44)
Sanctuary we are
–
desecrated by
father and mother.
Your answer
remain deception.1
"The Mountain is plundered; its trees are felled, and it stands naked. Upon its summit there is a Temple, of marble, of gold, glass and of steel; and it is marvelous – but terrible. No man prayeth there." (Tolkien, The History of Middle-earth). The soul is falling into the morass of fighting religions. The creative dream is dying away in the pollutions of the faith, the divine persona’s exuberance. 'Turmoil of dubious odour' (Lévi-Strauss) depraves the fragrance of the rose just as the nightingale’s singing. Wind blows the earth away, fire makes water boil away. War cultures are consuming our souls.
1Everyone
deceives his neighbor, and no one speaks the truth.
They have taught their tongue to speak lies; they act wrongly, they are
too sluggish to revert.
Oppression everywhere, nothing but deceit! They refuse to know me –
Saying of the Lord.
(Jeremiah 9:4-5)
The
Pandora's Box
The
Venus trap, as seductive woman, sucks us into her trivial and monotonous
patterns. The cry for help of daughter Earth is subjected to the charm
of the pride of the mothers' sons.
False masculinity glows in sultry damp. An excess of spiritual power draws
femininity down into ruin
(C.G. Jung). 'In bloody constraint', a
paternal majesty murders the cultural values of humanity. In the
hormonal charm of natural childbirth 'women in their morality go conform
with anyone they love'
(La Bruyère) 'and it is this long, very narrow
alley, comparable with a very low, dark and narrow oven, its bottom of
total dirt, stinking mud full of disgusting worms – there the soul’s
dying away takes place amidst unspeakable, devastating despair'
(Teresa de Ávila, Libro de la Vida).
Dialogue is not psyche-logical Most people are prejudiced in their speech. In the impression of subconscious feelings of hatred, suppressing feelings of guilt, they tend to express introspective thoughts: 'God has sealed their hearts and their ears, and over their eyesight lies a covering, destined for them is great torment' (Sura 2.7 The Cow). In this way, however, dialogue turns out to be counterproductive. Only under the vow to dialogue with the heart 'like a child'1 to hear anew, to see anew, to love anew – realising in the innermost images of the soul what is happening in the spiritual-universal and cosmic circumstances – we will be able to heal planet Earth in the feast of Koinonia, creating New Mythology.
1Amen,
I say to you, unless you turn and become like children,
you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
(Matthew 18:3)
In the serving function of a child [Luke 9:46-48]1, the Cultural Spirit descends from heaven, communicating to all. 'The sensually perceptible fire of the creative spirit2 is indeed in all things, infusing all unmixed and being enraptured by all. It is unconquerable and unrecognisable, drawing everything it reaches into its own impact. While it is completely light and at the same time hidden, it is unrecognisable in and for itself, unless it is presented with a material on which it can reveal its incomparable impact. But then it has ardent power to transform, to rejuvenate with revitalising warmth, to illuminate with unveiled rays, unconquered, undiluted, dividing3, unchangeable, ever-moving, self-moved, moving another, encompassing, showing its mighty greatness in the receptive substances, effective and powerful, invisibly present for everything' (Areopagita, On the Heavenly Hierarchy XV.2); so that femininity raised by the loving glance of Her most sacred capacity, raised to the cosmic constitution and empowerment, is inducing the will 'of love' and imparting to humanity what is being revealed in the Hierarchy.
1Then
there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.
And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set
him by him,
and said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name
receives me:
and whosoever shall receive me receives him that sent me: for he that is
least
among you all, the same shall be great.
(Luke 9:46-48)
2I
have come to bring fire on the earth,
and how I wish it were already kindled!
(Luke 12:49)
3Do
you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division.
From now on there will be:
five in one family divided against each other,
three against two and two against three. They will be divided, father
against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter
against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and
daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.
(Luke
12:51-53)
