The War for the Feminine: Part IIFrom last time… “In the process they push the authentic feminine spirit further and further away, causing themselves more fear, which causes them to institute more draconian and restrictive systems to force energy to themselves…” And this is where we are today. Isolated. Afraid. I walk down urban streets, ride the subway, shop. Fear is everywhere. No one dares look. No one dares trust. No one dares connect. The Other might be hostile. Or clingy. Or any of a million things that damages my fragile safety. My security. My peace. Men are voraciously prowling for women’s energy. And women are holding on for dear life to that precious energy which is intimately connected to their soul and their sexuality. It feels existential. It must be protected. And who else can protect it but her? Each of us is drifting further and further apart, becoming more “independent”, more isolated. Until we feel completely alone most of the time. This is the state of most of the world today.The chasm between the genders, tearing as it does even between two sleeping bodies on a single mattress seems impassible. A connection feels impossible. A solution unfindable. What is to be done? And who is to do it? May I suggest a plan? The Dalai Lama said, “The world will be saved by the western woman.” If he is right, we know what will be done and who will be doing it. First of all, if you are a western woman, are you willing to save the world? Are you willing to do whatever it takes to bring yourself to the state of being able to save the world? Risk whatever it takes? Suffer whatever it takes? Because this is what I have determined. Unless our purpose is sufficiently strong to enable us to be able to sacrifice everything secondary for our cause, we will fail. I will fail. You will fail. All will be lost. That need not happen. And you don’t even have to do anything horrible or painful. In fact, unless you have joy, we all have no hope. Here are three steps you can take to save the world. Ready, ladies? 1. Find your joy. First: Find your joy. What is it that makes you jump for joy? Squeal in pleasure? What fills you with excitement and power? What is it that enables you to move through your day with joy and bliss? If you don’t know, find that thing, whatever it is. That is the doorway into your unique energy. Second, Live your Passion. Once you find it, make love to it. Connect to it. Dive deep. Become one with it. Consume it. Allow it to consume you. Follow that essential self right into the very center of it. And once you have done that: Express your beauty. No matter where your joy and passion are to be found, it will allow you to bring forth your unique beauty from your womb into the world. Your joy. Your passion. It will just flow. Does this sound impossible? Ask for help. Do you not know how? Ask for help. Are you not strong enough? Ask for help. Next time: How the Men can Help… |
