Spirituality and responsibility are a single thread.
"Wholeness" is the exploration of spirituality
Today, personal development and ways of rescuing the self are worked out in various ways. As a result of an experience lodged in the Cartesian and normative mind, we have this hunger to recover who we are, from this more complete and integrated being, from a fuller and more meaningful life. In this path of self-discovery, we put into practice various methods, exercises, or experiences. We open the ground and try to find answers to the soul’s questions, finding our place again. This brings us purpose and value; it reminds us of the essence of things. Allied to this route of wholeness is the exploration of spirituality, which is often incorporated into knowledge and methods that can bring new perspectives on our history, legacy, and, consequently, the core and future construction. Spiritual practices can connect us to an incorporeal or immaterial reality, that transcends us. It can help us recognize a consciousness beyond us, which involves and permeates everything.
We usually arrive at this vulnerable journey because we inevitably collide throughout life with discomfort, anguish, sorrow, suffering, and affliction. We feel fragile, defenseless, exposed, unprotected, or helpless. Furthermore, we need to find a justification, a motive, or a cause for our experience, the why of things. In this untidy way, we attach ourselves to structuring figures, which might bring us answers or conclusions. They seem to hold the key that allows us to decipher the mythical dance of our life. We drink from their knowledge, their wisdom, and their vibration. Teachers, therapists, masters, and gurus.
But we need to take care. Take care of ourselves, of the truths of the spirit and the soul. And never, never forget that spirituality and responsibility are a single journey. A tide that aligns and keeps us connected with humility, justice, and integrity. The path of personal development is not a selfish or narcissistic one. It does not function to put ourselves at the top of some hierarchy of wisdom or conscience as better, special, or chosen. In a systemic reality, there are no messiahs, but entire relationships and humility at the service of life.
Are you ready to be whole but not special?
The sacred act of dissolving
The polymorphic body dissolves and tears. Transforms and dismantles. Dissipates Unties Dismembers Disintegrates The polymorphic body needs metamorphosis to remain whole. To merge with Life. To aggregate to the ground. To break and emerge. Metamorphosis is inevitable, but we do not always have a cocoon.
Do you hear the Serpent-Women?
Do you hear the serpent-women? In the corners of time, of the spontaneity of the day, on the thresholds of the stones, of the mineral memories, from the depths of the waters, in the abyssal flow of wisdom. In the sap of the trees and the colors of the flowers.
