To all Peaceworkers,
The Advent season has begun. We use this time to prepare for a new inner birth. We use this time to connect ever deeper with the advent and presence of a new expansive peace. In this time it is as if the Earth, with all her forces of consciousness, were to turn towards this one large dimension which is capable of ending and overcoming global war. The celebration of this great advent shall occur on a physical, cellular and elementary level. May our body be the temple of divine presence. Years ago a befriended nun from Switzerland sent me the following text which now I gladly pass on in this Ring of Power as an inspiration for the Advent season.
Text of Empowerment: A blessing for the senses
out of: "Spiritual Wisdom from the Celtic World" by John O'Donohue, Bantam Press 1997
Blessed be your body.
May you recognise that your body is a beautiful and true friend of your soul.
May you experience peace and joy and recognise that your senses are divine thresholds.
May you recognise that holiness is attentive looking, is feeling, hearing and touching. May your senses congregate and lead you home.
May your senses continue to empower you to celebrate the Universe and the secret and the possibilities of your existence.
MAY THE EROS OF THE EARTH BLESS YOU.
Sentence of Empowerment: Your senses are divine thresholds.
With best wishes
