Divinely YES to the feminine
Thoughts Mary, Mary Magdalene, and Jesus/Yeshua/Issa (Eesa in Aramaic)
In a world filled with fear, aggression to women, religious corruptions and an insane, homicidal leader, a little baby was born straight from heaven through the womb of a woman deeply in touch with her own sacred heart-womb.
This baby, this one who came, taught us to love - to find our way to the resurrection beyond every form of death, not through vengeance or surveillance or better security, but through the power of forgiveness and invincible divine love.
Mary, Jesus and Mary Magdalene all said YES to incredibly challenging missions, in incredibly challenging times.
Whether you know him as Yeshua/Jesus/Issa or Eesa, the baby we celebrate on Christmas was probably born in spring - and wherever he walked he elevated the divine feminine within himself and others.
Mary, Jesus and Mary Magdalene said YES to the light within them, and to working with their families of light to birth heavenly realities exactly within the darkness that surrounded them and their families. They said yes to this even though they knew they would be misunderstood for millennia.
Jesus/Issa shared a similar message in the far east as the did with those who had eyes to see and ears to hear in the accounts recorded in the Bible; records of which are which are attested to by multiple people, including those who wanted to disprove the ideas. According to the TibetanBuddhistEncyclopedia:
Issa said that man had filled the temples with his abominations. In order to pay homage to metals and stones, man sacrificed his fellows in whom dwells a spark of the Supreme Spirit. Man demeans those who labor by the sweat of their brows, in order to gain the good will of the sluggard who sits at the lavishly set board. But they who deprive their brothers of the common blessing shall be themselves stripped of it.
Vaishas and Shudras were struck with astonishment and asked what they could perform. Issa bade them "Worship not the idols. Do not consider yourself first. Do not humiliate your neighbor. Help the poor. Sustain the feeble. Do evil to no one. Do not covet that which you do not possess and which is possessed by others."
Many, learning of such words, decided to kill Issa. But Issa, forewarned, departed from this place by night.
Afterward, Issa went into Nepal and into the Himalayan mountains ....
"Well, perform for us a miracle," demanded the servitors of the Temple. Then Issa replied to them: "Miraclesmade their appearance from the very day when the world was created. He who cannot behold them is deprived of the greatest gift of life. But woe to you, enemies of men, woe unto you, if you await that He should attest his power by miracle."
Issa taught that men should not strive to behold the Eternal Spirit with one's own eyes but to feel it with the heart, and to become a pure and worthy soul....But Issa taught: "Do not seek straight paths in darkness, possessed by fear. But gather force and support each other. He who supports his neighbor strengthens himself
At this time, an old woman approached the crowd, but was pushed back. Then Issa said, "Reverence Woman, mother of the universe,' in her lies the truth of creation. She is the foundation of all that is good and beautiful. She is the source of life and death. Upon her depends the existence of man, because she is the sustenance of his labors. She gives birth to you in travail, she watches over your growth. Bless her. Honor her. Defend her. Love your wives and honor them, because tomorrow they shall be mothers, and later-progenitors of a whole race. Their love ennobles man, soothes the embittered heart and tames the beast. Wife and mother-they are the adornments of the universe."
"As light divides itself from darkness, so does woman possess the gift to divide in man good intent from the thought of evil. Your best thoughts must belong to woman. Gather from them your moral strength, which you must possess to sustain your near ones. Do not humiliate her, for therein you will humiliate yourselves. And all which you will do to mother, to wife, to widow or to another woman in sorrow-that shall you also do for the Spirit."
…Said Issa: "Not far hence is the time when by the Highest Will the people will become purified and united into one family."…And Jesus taught in the monasteries and in the bazaars (the market places); wherever the simple people gathered--there he taught.
P.S. Two of the guys who encountered the life of Saint Issa were named Nicholas. Maybe they brought a really special Christmas gift back to us from the Himalayas.
