This Week’s Quotation:
“The Mother principle is the depth of the substance of the deep. No one knows enlightenment, no one brings light to the world, without welcoming the Mother to their experience.”
~ Becoming a Sun, page 40
Breathing the Mother
Around the world, mothers are revered and held sacred. There is a deep understanding that without mothers, life would not exist. The Mother principle reminds us that all creation requires a womb within which to gestate, through which life may be born into the world of form, and later held and protected during the formative cycles of any lifetime.
The space of Mother is the space of the Womb. It is dark and rich with nutrients, fluid and resilient, and holds the source codes for the world of form. It gives and receives, holds things in, and keeps things out. It is a place of meeting of all elements of life, and wise discernment of how to hold them for the purposes of creation. It allows for birth into and through form, and back into Spirit.
There is a womb space, a Mother, in all of us, in which we hold the essences of creation for ourselves and those in our field with whom we have creative exchanges—and perhaps, for creation that occurs in the larger field without our conscious awareness. We exist to birth Spirit into form and transmute form into Spirit.
How can we cultivate the Mother space within us, and honor the Mother space in all that is?
Let us build the relational field of exchange that is the Mother, where all moves in and out in reciprocal flow, and grow our capacity for giving and receiving, for holding and birthing.
It is as natural as breathing. Will you breathe with the All That Is?
What does it mean to become a sun?
Every human being is already a sun on the inside—a being of intense love and light. The difference is that some people have the vision and courage to become a sun on the outside. This difference is our human destiny.
What a deep and rich revelation of the Mother. thank you, Maria!
Thank you, Maria. It is substantial to be mothering with you – mothering spirit, mothering the Christ, mothering what matters most to a sinking humanity. Thanks to you and David for this care for and attention to the necessary Womb atmosphere in me to let the NEW and the SACRED be born. I also want to recommend the Primal Spirituality and other opportunities which appear near your blog to any who read this. THANK YOU. Blessings, Tom C.
My Mother (and actually my Father and my Brother), are my world. I feel their ‘essence’ periodically – sometimes when I feel hurt, or alone (never really alone – so many beautiful friends) – but some nights I am awakened by a soft feeling that those I so love are reminding me that they are Always with me.
Thank you, Maria, for emphasizing how important it is to bring forth the values and qualities associated with the Divine Mother in our living. I think we would be much closer to world peace if there were more women in positions of authority. And how essential it is to honor Mother Nature to maintain our planet as a livable entity.
