Seems like as I continue to refine my personal definition of spirituality,
I see a lot of the patriarchal leanings still exist in organized religions.
Its like… the penis is supposed to be the ‘rod of wisdom’.
From everything I've seen..., it isn’t.
.
The AKA's of certain religions:
Dude-ist… (Buddhist)
Him-Do… (Hindu)
Christ-Him… (Christian)
other Man-stream Religions (mainstream)
Don’t get me wrong, I have more in common with the first two as they’re a closer match to my own philosophy but in the ‘organized part’ – they still have heavy leanings toward the patriarchal (masculine). This mystifies me so many agree that it takes both Yin & Yang (feminine & masculine) to achieve any semblance of balance.
I’d love to see an opening of arms toward the re-emerging goddess (feminine) energy so that it comes into our conscious as a gradual integration rater than having to reach the strength of a tsunami to create change. Either way will effect the needed change but the turbulence of a such wave can be rough on those who are unprepared.
So awakening goddesses, dance a new dance with the masculine, one of power coupled with grace, seduction with wisdom and knowledge with nurturing giving birth to a new world
