Sudy Mother's Day 2009

I was listening to Pete Seeger singing Guantanamera (mis-spelled?) and I thought of all the people working for the farm workers singing that song and understanding the spanish.and then I realized what it means to have the Christ spirit in ones heart-that is something beyond the emotionality of the Bible and the Church. This is something that includes working to bring justice and respect and honor to people. The emphasis on living not on original sin or being born flawed-such a greek notion I now understand. What I saw this morning is the Jesus I have seen before who opposes the Church, the religion to say nothing of the Dominionists. This Christ consciousness has to do with working and sweating along with the world free of any belief, any faith but honoring the day and the night,the seasons our needs for food and education and shelter and companionship and communion with our group. Guess the Jesus archetype is still living in this ol pagan-I just turned my back on the rightwingers with their sins and vengence and rigidity. I couldn't go on after this new Pope took over. Birth control is essential for suvival, sometimes women must be relieved of pregnancy. what we need to strive for is a world where women are safe and can regulate their own lives. what needs to go is the idea of rule from the top down and we need to embrace the rule of life from the roots up. the Piscean age is ending-Rudhyar was correct when he identified us hippies as the last of the Pisceans back to try and get it right.
