Mona Lisa Lächeln – Nur wenige Frauen wissen, was Glück bedeutet  Wären Frauen glücklich, wenn sie all ihre Wünsche erfüllt bekämen? Würde es genügen, wenn sie alles besäßen? – Nein, sie würden Entschuldigungen für ihr Unglück finden und weiter Männer, beauftragen, Glück in physischer Freude und mentaler Belustigung zu suchen. Doch alles Vergängliche und Unglückliche ist kein Glück. Das wahre Glück liegt tief verborgen im Herzen eines jeden Mannes: in der »Bruderschaft in der Vaterschaft Gottes«. Doch man sucht nicht danach. Wie ihnen befohlen, suchen Männer Glück im Vergnügen. Die Distanz aber zwischen Vergnügen und dem Glück ist so groß wie die zwischen Erde und Himmel. Solange das Herz der Männer nicht auf die edle Stimmung gestimmt ist, können Frauen, ihrem seelischen Wesen nach, auch nicht glücklich sein. Das Glück der Frauen kommt aus dem edlen Innersten des männlichen Herzens – und zeigt sich im Gesichtsausdruck der Frauen: in ihrer Atmosphäre, und würden ihnen auch Stellung und Reichtum im äußeren Leben genommen, würde ihnen dieses innere Glück nicht genommen. Das Lächeln Mona Lisas, des edlen Herzens der Frau, hängt von der Stimmung des Herzens ihres Mannes ab. Dazu muss sein Herz auf die Bodhisattva-Stimmung gestimmt sein, in der die weibliche Seele lebt. Solange Männer diese Quelle, Voraussetzung ihres Glücks, nicht entdeckt haben – die in der altruistischen Seele ruht und als Liebe zum kulturellen Genius –, werden sie nicht Das Glück schenken können. Denn wenn es den Heiligen Gral gibt, jene Quelle, aus der Frauen die Richtung für ihr »Handeln im Planetarischen Bewusstsein« entnehmen können, dann ist er im brüderlichen Herzen der Männer zu finden. Wer aber nicht weiß, ob ein solcher Geist 'Bruderschaft in der Vaterschaft Gottes' (Finale Beethovens Neunter Sinfonie) existiert oder nicht, der irrt als Frau durchs Leben, wie eine wilde Stute im Wald {'Wie fliegen der Teufelsmähre die Mähnen!' Parsifal I.1}, ohne zu wissen, wohin es geht, und warum sie rennt, und warum sie steht.

Dialogue and dominion  At the moment when women's creative imagination anticipates the beloved archetype of 'The Cultural Creatives' (Shechinah), the light of the healing souls is kindled to the women and the perceptible values of the cultural-creative spirit are being transformed into the correlation of a New Organism as 'Planetary Consciousness'. If it coincides in dialogue that the 'Great Goddess' (Al Lat) will be versed in the wisdom of the 'Great Mother' (Al Uzza) at the same time, then the dominion is hers. However, if this is not the case, then the dominion is due to the Great Mother. If there is no one like her, then the dominion belongs to all those women (Manat), who, versed in divine wisdom, are completely devoid of discursive thinking. In no case, however, is the dominion in dialogue due to a spiritual man who is not also acquainted with the wisdom of the Great Mother. The genius is more dignified than a purely spiritual thinker, for ethics is based on inspirations received from the Great Mother. When healing creative spirit arises from 'the Father and the Son', cultural-creative intelligence is personified as healing planetary power. According to Suhrawardi, every intelligence works progressively through hypostasis to create an intelligence that is hierarchically inferior to it (Hikmat al-Ishraq): "The eternal word, 'the way, the truth and the life', born in the darkness of the grotto." Thus the spiritual intelligence of women brings forth the cultural-creative masculine spirit. According to Old Scripture: 'When the divine lights of women become sevenfold'¹, then women are clothed in a garment of power and reverence, and the souls of men submit to cultural-creative service – Sabbath: the ascending Christ is 'bread' and spiritual will is 'the table' – a threefold hierarchy formed of the hypostases of the intelligence, each of which generates a new hypostasis, the souls of men, and beyond that a celestial orb, the Feminine Organism in Planetary Consciousness. 'Fire from water, water from wind, and Wind from the Holy Spirit, Spirit of the Living God' (Sefer Jezira §11): »Christ«, the intellectus agens of spiritual women, that is the healing female archangel of humanity.

¹While the barren woman gives birth to seven children,
she who had many children languishes. (Samuel 2,5)

Destructive inner patterns are at work – incurable neurosis?
When you ask women where they are, they usually point to their bodies, to their "gut feeling". Others answer the question, 'Where exactly in your body are you?' with "In my doubts." They limit themselves to psychophysics, what they call their ego, and thereby make themselves much smaller than they actually are. In truth, women are individuals with two poles, a stream with a source and an outfall; the outfall is femininity, the source the knowledge of God. Most women forget the 'tree of knowledge'; they only know 'the tree of good and evil', of which they are all too aware, and it is this awareness of limitation that makes them even more limited. Otherwise, women would have far greater possibilities. Through the cultural masculine soul, the 'body and God' of the feminine brings planetary consciousness into the world. However, the men's efforts to transmit 'planetary consciousness' without the state of spiritual being are in vain. Women who are preoccupied with their own ideas are difficult to change. Also the psyche of so-called "religious" women is very different from that of earlier times; it requires a very delicate handling. Often you find women who may take great initiative in the cause of 'women-global-ethics' and show more enthusiasm than is necessary; but if you point out the faults of such women, they will only contradict you: easily the ability to become a self-martyr can grow in them. Even angels will accept psychic corrections in the spirit of pursuit, even making it their convinced work to fight against every kind of spiritual guidance: every desire, every attempt of psychological healing to correct them will make their resistance even stronger. Just as men must be humble and reverent towards the feminine source of enlightenment, so women must, on the other hand, renounce human partiality. "Only by following one's path like a horse that runs straight ahead without looking sideways at its fellow horses can one retain the inner freedom that propels one forward" (I CHING 61.4 Inner Truth / R. Wilhelm).

Possessiveness prevails in me  Therefore – even the best of them – rarely succeed in igniting in their souls that spark of love capable of transfiguring a woman's individuation into planetary consciousness. Possessiveness and nationalism prevent men and women from truly understanding and loving one another: they cause wars and catastrophes. If mercy were to replace the male soul's male desire to possess, the world would be transformed into a new creation where truth, justice, prosperity, and peace would unite. Women cannot bring men to reason; only the prayer of the humble in brotherly love can do that.

"Well-being can only grow in the community and never apart from it; one can only live collectively, speak collectively and love collectively" (Mahabharata, Udyoga Parva 39). 'But to consolidate the small, the great must first be consolidated; then, to put the great in order, the small must first be in order' (Spring and Autumn of Lü Buwei). The coarse protestant male intellect, moving towards repentance, and the subtle femininity capable of spiritual psychoanalysis both must co-operate together. The enlightened female compassion cannot help the male thinking, if insight into repentance is lacking.

Zureden ohne Besserung– was kann man damit anfangen? Zustimmen ohne Besserung {sich heilen lassen, ohne Heilerin zu sein} – was kann man damit anfangen? (Konfuzius, Gespräche). Das Mental, Vital und Physische des Mannes wird sich nicht ändern, wenn sich seine Frau lediglich die Mühe nimmt, zu flüstern oder zu sagen: „Liebling, du, lass es Licht werden!“ Das männliche Ego hat eine ungeheuer negierende Macht und ein Mann allein wird sich weigern; er wird es unverhohlen tun: sich widersetzen, mit eigensinniger Beharrlichkeit im Argumentieren, einem immerwährenden Durcheinander von Ideen, entwaffnenden Begründungen seines Mentals im unbedingten Festhalten an alten Gewohnheiten – versammeln sich Männer nicht mindestens 'zu zweit oder zu dritt'¹.

¹For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them. (Matthew 18:20)

While Pilate was sitting on the judge’s seat, his wife sent him this message:
"Don’t have anything to do with that innocent man, for I have suffered a great deal today in a dream because of him."
But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus executed. (Matthew 27:19-20)

But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ,
and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. (1 Corinthians 11:3)

Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said. (1 Corinthians 14:29)

Confession of a musician  As an organist, my experience since my earliest youth was that women mechanically recited the 'Hail Mary' when praying the rosary, and at high mass the men's 'Our Father' – which also includes an invocation to the Great Mother – sounded like 'booming brass or noisy kettledrum'¹. If women were on the other hand, with conviction, genuine faith and devotion (to Christ, Mrs. Hulda and Eástre), everything they say in dialogue would have an effect; this effect would perform miracles. Therefore, the first thing to do is to persevere in spiritual paths – through meditation, through concentration, through prayer, through study, through all that women do – to eradicate the false self-consciousness as far as possible, so that the reality of 'Dharma-giving in the house-church' can manifest, that charity which is always buried under the wrong self-determination of the woman. The spiritual consciousness of women is like a spring that gushes from rugged stone², water which, once motivation has gained spiritual power and strength, breaks through the rock of self-determined action and becomes a river of healing through 'tavistock-working-conferences'. It is similar with 'god-sparks from Elysium' (Beethoven's 9th Symphony): through concentration [blackening: heartfelt veneration of Notre-Dame], then whitening [meditation: 'not the Goddess but God!'] soul nobility manifests and where this daughter of Elysium, men's 'female side of God', has mercy, She washes away all the will-o'-the-wisps of 'erring faith'. Men have this seemingly innate tendency to avoid spiritual exertion in the community. Their method is to do everything they can to delegate their tasks to others. In this highly valued art, they weaken themselves; the perfect balance between the spiritualization of matter and the materialization of spirit through the soulfully loving Divine Feminine is lost: women lose their ability to materialize the healing spirit of the world. For women to renounce evil, to radiate resilient and intelligent planetary consciousness, their husbands must enable themselves to confront the devil, 'bearing the suffering of Christ in their hearts, for it is man's greatest comfort' (Nicholas of Flüe to the Council of Bern). This refers not only to 'Jesus' fear of death and his capture in the Garden of Gethsemane and the resurrection of Christ', but also to his life afterwards: the return of the other whom the dear God will send, the comforter, 'the advocate who remains forever'. It is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive because it neither sees nor knows it³. "But I am as insignificant as a flea" (Samuel 24:15).

¹If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love,
I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. (1 Corinthians 13:1)

²I will stand there before you by the rock at Horeb.
Strike the rock, and water will come out of it for the people to drink.
So Moses did this in the sight of the elders of Israel. (Exodus 17:6)

³And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever -
the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him.
But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. (John 14:16-17)

Kinship  'In nature, religion, science and art form a whole' (Aivanhov). When women succeed in giving birth to the science of Mary of Bethany with the intellect, the soul art of Mary Magdalene with the mind, and the religion of Elizabeth/Martha with the will to give birth, then that »Cosmic Sophia« is realised, which is similar to the light of the Great Goddess, the warmth of the Green Tara and the ethics of the Great Mother. Then the Divine Mother heals our world with ethics, intelligence and heart. "Then they sing a new song before the throne, before the four living creatures and the elders. But no one could learn the song except those who had been redeemed and taken from the earth. These are the ones who have not defiled themselves with women; for they are virgins. And they follow the Lamb wherever he goes." Secret Revelation 14:3-4. Being trusted by one's spouse is a recognition of personal integrity. However, in the egalitarian environment of dialogue, this integrity means disclosing reasons for actions when asked – and indeed having good reasons for all actions that pertain to the culture of enlightened souls. Women who conceal their true intentions cannot possess the qualities necessary for a cooperative determination of the meaning of love; this limits their ability to assert ego-interests in a domineering manner and thus contributes to the transformation of coercive violence into egalitarian communication. (Anthony Giddens, The Transformation of Intimacy, Polity Press, Cambridge, Stanford University Press 1992).

Healing of the Earth  The Wise Women enter into the creative unity of woman and man through the study of the female nature and the four soul types of men, bringing the individuation of Christ into being, by sacrificing their own personalities. Humane life, the New Life of the relationship between women and men, begins for women in the distinction between 'God as Dharma-giving charity' and 'God as spiritual insight'. If women do not distinguish between the two, and thus disregarding the complementary aspect, the influence of men's soulful spirit on the humanistic personality of women, they will miss happiness in life. Men who then say: "There is no harm done to human beings inflicted in the womb; I will not look at 'women's guilt', but will continue to do the big business with women," they become depressed over time. However, those who feel the triple suffering of womanhood, as well as the harm felt, that has been reactively inflicted on men by women, but forgive women their guilt as those have forgiven the guilt of men, these men are the ones who lead International Peace Conferences and will succeed because they have fulfilled the feminine "I am, who I will be" as a lover of 'face to face'¹.

¹Face to face I speak with him clearly, and not in riddles,
and the likeness of the Lord will he behold. (Numbers 12:8)

The Head of Medusa  The fullness of women's lives in our time requires more than just 'body, heart and soul'; it requires the divine spirit, an independent and superior complex, which obviously has the sole capacity to bring into living all those soul's potentialities of visions, revelations and inspirations of the masculine, that simply pious women's selves cannot manifest. But as in men lives that eros which strives for blind, unlimited taking – the greatest achievers are usually fulfilled by a striving for the superhuman – so there is in women a passion for that negative aspect of 'Medusa-femininity', in which femininity, for the sake of its creative superiority, wishes to sacrifice all life; 'in this passion feminine spirituality becomes a malignant tumour' (cf. C.G. Jung, Soul and Earth), which uselessly destroys the essence of 'brotherhood'.

Transcultural Psychosynthesis: 'Healing through criticism rather than flattery'
Men cause spiritual damage to women when, guided by eros, they constantly gush with words such as: "What a wonderful woman you are!" or "You are the best woman in the world", etc. In this way, women develop high opinions of themselves, but in doing so, they lose sight of their need for divine grace and consequently can no longer ask for help for their own souls: rock-hard conceit takes root in the woman's mind, which she takes with her to the grave. "Those who are considered 'the salt of the earth' in God's union with the soul – woe to them if they lose their saltiness!" (Dag Hammarskjöld). The rope over the abyss is held taut by those who anchor it in the intuition of the divine feminine.

The reason why self-proclaimed "Catholic" women and "Protestant" men flee from dialogue in sheer panic is that conversations about relationships, based on spiritual foundations, are permeated by underlying tensions, guilt and unspoken fears that reveal the vulnerabilities of each character and their struggles to articulate their feelings. Dialogue makes the complexity of the human relationship to 'God and one's soul' palpable and dramatically reveals the effects of trauma. However, the path to peace and health requires that true self-discovery be the process of confronting discomfort and vulnerability. 'Dialogue leads not only to the painful realization that women do not have control over their actions, but also that, unless guided by the holiness of a creative spirit, they feel morally and emotionally exhausted. This leads to a state in which they question their own reason and consider relinquishing their responsibilities to avoid controversy, indicating a deep inner struggle.' (Doris Lessing, Golden Notebook).

Planetary Consciousness versus Empirical Subjectivism (Nationalism)
The spiritual consciousness of the feminine sees beauty, the whole, the interconnectedness: namely, how love, harmony and beauty of the Medicine Buddha character of men globally brings about the peace-creating personality potential of women. The personal and national spirit of men thwarts this because it constantly wants something; which makes it susceptible to neuroses, stress, deception and delusion, ideological fanaticism, extreme subjectivism and a destructive lifestyle that seduces humanity.

The fate of Europe is not predetermined by nuclear war (Third Secret of Fatima). Calling evil or harmful things by their proper names and justifying this scientifically is the first step that men must take for »peace in Europe«; only then can women begin to overcome reactionary diseases in their churches concerning 'religion and sexuality' by means of sacred art therapy [drama-ritual-feast].

Man will not understand 'religion' until he has not understood himself. As man glorifies God, so God glorifies Him, that the work glorifies the artists, and angels praise: 'God glorifies Himself for ever and ever'. In terms of the sexes this means: As the woman glorifies 'the Holy Virgin', so 'the Cosmic Mother' glorifies her. 'The Son in the Father, the Father in the Son' is the path of men: 'Father, I glorified you on earth, now glorify me'¹ – 'my Son you are, today I have begotten you!'² 'Virgin born' as the 'pure Son of God' means the direct creativity of the universe, the 'miraculous conception' of intuitive revelation. This omega of the masculine is prophesied by the 'messengers' as the alpha of the feminine; which does not mean the sacred act of procreation, in which God takes the place of a man, but that creative new beginning in which the 'Messiah hope' is fulfilled in such a way that righteous, saintly, salutary women realise 'God's reign', which at the same time fulfils the expectations of all peoples. They are those women in whose midst a 'young woman' is no longer called "enemy", but is called 'God with us', because she has given birth to the Holy Ideal, 'blessed by God and conceived without any indwelling', has given birth as her soul. A greater honour to the woman, thus becoming temple³ is inconceivable. Male spirituality, the personality-centred egoistic life, without its alpha, the moral community that protects the feminine, ends in spiritual death: 'One separates oneself, isolates oneself, distances oneself from the others, and that is death' (Aïvanhov) from which no cultural life blossoms. The apparent death of the body is the real birth of the soul; in this, the inner death [the dissolution of the earth into water] into the centre of its being – 'Devotion to the Lord': 'Taken up to Heaven', towards an angelicisation of the heart – must follow the outer death, the fire-birth of the soul into the emptiness, that abstract mind of charity that opens the door to our concretised spiritual nature to the 'Joy of the Beauteous Godly Lightning', the pure spirit of planetary consciousness.

¹I have glorified you on earth. I have finished the work which you have given me to do.
Now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world was. (John 17:4-5)

²I will proclaim the Lord's decree. He said to me,
"You are my son; today I have begotten you." (Psalm 2:7)

³Nor will people say, 'Here it is', or 'There it is', because
the kingdom of God is in your midst. (Luke 17:21)

Pandora's box  Women's pride, vanity, jealousy, envy and contempt, feelings that hurt others and destroy their own lives, are the result of the selfish personal feelings of their beloved. Despite all the professional independence of women, if men lack developed Buddha nature, women must feed on the shadow of the male persona¹. The more selfish and conceited a man's character is, the more miserable a woman's emotional life in the world is, and the more miserable both make the planetary life of humans on Earth. God's goodness, that justice which women have inherited from the Great Mother, remains locked in the depths of the female heart without the cultural soul creative spirit of men. Imitation is an inclination that seems innate in many men, and yet most do not want to know how important the question of role models is for their soul’s life. Or whom do they want to imitate in the development of their spiritual potential? Those who have achieved spiritual fame and mental success, or material wealth?

¹In the morning it flourishes and grows up; In the evening it is cut down and withers. (Psalm 90.6)
