clothedinsky: The Goddess wept tears of blood...

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

The Goddess wept tears of blood when we invented the plough. Nature became some thing to be controlled, we developed stronger and more insidious patriarchal, hierarchical patterns, people on the lower strata became beasts of burden, human resources, women became less than human, we were told our children were born of sin, we cut ourselves off from the deepest feelings and experiences of our body, our life and it’s deep, deep connection to the world around us. Which has all quickly led to the corporate domination and the possible unsustainability of human life on this planet through a culture of right brain dominate individuals, societies and religions. One only need see Jill Bolte Taylor’s TED presentation to understand how far such a transition can alter personal (and hypothesize as to the collective) perception of and participation within the world.

In Vajrayana Buddhism there were many wild teachers, originally men and women, who retained the traditions of the Goddess and taught methods to delve as deeply as humanly possible into the experience of life in all it’s facets, to uncover and unlock all the latent possibilities of this life. I’ve not found anybody who offers this lineage to a Western audience in such an honest and pure way as Reggie Ray, this is some of what he talks about in another wonderful interview. I hope I’ve done it justice
