(9/29/05) There are many ways to connect with God, or the Goddess,
many ways to get in touch with our inner divine nature.
The Goddess is the oldest divinity, and the mother of all others.
Ancient pre-Christian religions, with their focus on the appreciation
of the Sacred Feminine, an awareness that has been lost for centuries
to the egoic, male-dominated collective mind (as Echart Tolle, enlightened
spiritual leader of our time, remind us) are experiencing a great revival.

Nature-inspired religious movements, such as the Wicca, for example,
emphasize frequent contact with nature, respect for the seasons
and the fruits of Mother Earth, and getting in touch, reclaiming
and honoring the Sacred Feminine, the inner Goddess.
People all over the world, starving for genuine transpersonal experiences,
take steps to learn more about these spiritual traditions with a new,
enlightened attitude, foretelling of the Great Transformation that is taking
place in the collective consciousness.

The great psychologist and spiritual seeker Carl Jung,
the late famous mythologist Joseph Campbell, and many
other consciousness-development leaders have warned us,
for decades, against losing ourselves by losing contact with the myths
that help explain the reasons and purposes of our being here.
It seems that the time has really come to find our way back to nature,
and back to the Gods.....

Peace and Love to all.
