The Goddess Experiment, Day 13: Mama Of Mercy
Quan Yin is like the Buddhist cousin of Mother Theresa. The girl from the right side of the tracks in comparison to Wonder Woman. She “hears the cries of the world.”
As a Bodhisattva, she “vowed to remain in the earthly realms and not enter the heavenly worlds until all living things have become enlightened, and thus liberated from the pain-filled cycle of birth, death, and rebirth.” It’s a sort of the “leave no soldier behind” approach to Goddesship. It’s full tilt commitment to earth motherhood. Admirable.
But…I need more Yang to fire up the Yin. My image of God as She is air and fire.
. . . . . . . .
What is The Goddess Experiment? I’m wondering what will shift or bloom or go bust in my psyche if I very intentionally envision God in female form. For the next 21 days, including weekends, I’m going to actively re-frame He into She. His Highness into Her Highness. I’m collecting images that speak to me of God-dess.
Please join in. I may post what you send. Just to…see.
