As humans, we exist intertidally within this earthly realm and the imaginal realm, also known as the Kingdom of God coarising within the Ray of Creation.
Our task as True Humans, should we choose to accept it, is to responsibly navigate this intracoastal territory as, in the words of Cynthia Bourgeault, “surrendered beings who can exert force.”
Call it the death of modernity, the Second Axial Age, the emerging Integral Structure of Consciousness, or something else, the disorientations humans are experiencing in an exponentially complex and intense set of outer and inner conditions calls for a reminder of our essential human post.
Through practice, teaching, and reflection, this evening retreat will be a time of strengthening our Whole True Human Selves to continue to say yes to this task.
