Spirituality for Women Over 40

Who are you and what really matters? Our life's journey and connection to Source, Spirit or Highter Power can give our lives meaning and purpose. Take the time to discover the secrets of your soul and learn what matters and how you can best serve others and yourself. Love deeply and dance like no one is looking. (Very soon we will be installing a forum community here - visit often.)

    Going Beyond - Freedom from Religious Hierarchy (Part 3 of 3)

    Thursday, October 27, 2005

    By Tony Cuckson

    When you honour your soul experience by refusing to allow any authority other than your own you will arrive at the homeplace of our heart. You will arrive at your birthright that is joy.

    Joy is not essential within the institutional mind. Order is essential. This order is brought about by the orthodoxy of words. Within the institutional mind words often lose their essence. Lovers and poets cannot carry such words. They refuse to carry the burden of historical words that have been pulled up by their roots and made to fit the institutional creed.

    Hierarchy likes the political mind. It does not like the heart of the mystic. The mystic within all hieratical organisations has always been given a hard time. Einstein had a hard time within the orthodoxy of science.

    The mystic dances life. The mystic lives the paradox of life. He/she looks crazy. They love the flow of the unknown. You cannot tie the mystic to a creed, a book or a place. The mystic belongs nowhere and thus paradoxically the mystic belongs everywhere. They are the free flow of love.

    As Jelaluddin Rumi (1207-1273) the Sufi mystic reminds us: -
    Love lit a fire in my chest, and anything that wasn’t love left: intellectual subtlety, philosophy, books, school.

    All I want now to do or hear is poetry.

    Translation by Coleman Barks. From Birdsong.

    A mystic is free of all institutional learning. They drop all knowledge. They are empty. They allow the Divine to pour through them. They know that life is enough. All through history the mystic has been forced to come into line with orthodoxy. Often this has been accomplished through brutality.

    One of the most beautiful mystics was Jesus. He was a beautiful, crazy Divine filled, feminine, angry man who had one authority. This was his experience of at-one-ment with the source. This was not a creed. This was the living of love. This man of beauty was crucified. Romans or Jews did not crucify him. He was crucified by the institutional mind. This is the fixed mind that will not and cannot surrender to the beauty of unknowing. The institutional mind is still crucifying his teaching.

    Come out of the prison of the institutional mind and into the circle of love! You need no other authority than that of your heart. You alone need to learn to trust it. It knows the place you long for and the place you have never left. To know this is to know that the blessing is already here. This is the blessing of knowing who you are. It is to know that you are beyond anything and everything. There is nothing that can contain you. You are the dance of forever enough.
