What is feminine wisdom? Being not doing, birthing what wants to be birthed, feeding what is ready for life and letting die what misses the spark of life

An answer to betrayal

Posted: 2009-11-09 20:20:32

Faithfulness often seems the hoghest goal.But what to do when your partner has sex with another? Or when your ex refuses to take care of the childeren anymore? Or when you yourself have always sacrificed yourself and cannot do it anymore? Then what?

 

In these moments Rumi comes to you. He offers you that in your need help will come. But you already knew that. He also invites you to turn your vision of life around and make this the cornerstone. Then the conceptes of faith and betrayal become irrelevenat, and only then can you experience love without conditions. This was the foundation of the spiritual belief system of derwishes, mystics and priestesses.

 

 

Theresa of Avilia,  a Spanish mystic form the middle ages, was very rigorous in this. Her students were not allowed to have any goods. Even leftovers of the meals were given away. Every day again she demanded trust that we will be nourished. In times of crisis you yourself can experience the truth of this. The derwishes as the ancient priestesses founded their spirituality on this.

 

Dervishes

Rumi

 

When school and mosque and minaret

are torn down, the dervishes can begin

their comnmunity. not until faithfulness

 

turns to betrayal into trust

can any human being become

part of the truth
