Website launch and upcoming talk
Dear All,
Some of you may recall that towards the end of my talk on Remembering Spirit in an Age of Loss last June, I noted that when we finally come to say ‘I will that Divine Will be done through me’ with whole Hearts and one-pointed Awareness, the Divine takes us at our word, meaning that personal plans often go awry as a result. It happens that, after the June talk, both Cathleen and I felt that an Autumn sequel would be timely and so pencilled in October 5. The given outline was originally intended for that date. Un/predictably, for reasons beyond our control, it wasn’t possible to pursue this, which freed me to do other work. This produced amazing breakthroughs in ongoing research into Mother Divine’s Holy Womb/Sri Chakra, which specifically addresses how Her Cosmic Womb and Cosmos as Womb manifest Creation.
In keeping with Sri Kaleshwar’s request that I share my experience of his teachings directly, this is what I now propose to do. The teachings date from a time in ancient India when the rishis (saint-sages) were able to commune with Mother and so received them directly from Her. They were later implemented worldwide, prior to what would become a near total eclipse in our historical time of patriarchy. Kaleshwar’s goal is to restore this knowledge, building on foundations established by Jesus. My April talk will go to its Heart, directly focusing Kaleshwar’s wish that our lives should become as Sri Chakras, mediating healing spiritual energies into a troubled material world. Beyond Bhakti (Love), this also involves reclaiming Shakti (Power), which will be our next focus.
Two years ago, in Kaleshwar’s ashram, I offered to give up writing if that was required. His answer was to press on, relating my experience of his teachings to work I had already completed. That is why I had to start with Mayan etc. framing last year. This year, per instruction, the emphasis will be on aspects of my own process, streamlined to take us into the Heart of Mother’s Womb, there to engage with the mechanics of Creation on a personal (micro) scale and regarding the Womb of Cosmos as Mother’s materialised (macro) body. This entails being able to change nature by supernatural (Shakti) means, i.e. miracle healing energies. There will be those who just want to have knowledge of this, others who want to experience its healing benefits first hand and some who may want their lives to actively become as Sri Chakras. Our talk will address all three levels.
There will be lots of Knowledge but its role will be subordinate to framing the introduction of radically healing spiritual exercises. Issues on the given topic list may be covered in support of energy work that will also now come forward into the first half of my presentation. I haven’t revised this list because my directive has been to let inspiration flow on the night, so we can see and feel together what that’s like. For this reason, it’s not necessary to have attended last year’s talk to participate in this one. I will also be launching a website (sacredplay.info) in March where you can access relevant background material, starting with introductory content under ‘Kaleshwar’ and Vedic Tales of Beginning in Part II of last year’s talk under ‘News.’
The content of the website is diverse and covers more than thirty years of my conscious spiritual life. New content will be added in due course. Its overall purpose is to show how apparently scattered parts of our sometimes disparate lives always tend towards flow and integration, despite blocks and resistances that need tending on the way. In my case this process has entailed a lifelong preparation for what feels like a culminating late duet with Sri Kaleshwar, stepping out from the over-shadowed post-colonial Ireland of Magdalene Laundries and Industrial Schools to staggeringly recollected visions of Cosmos and Beyond.
I hope you will find something of interest. With thanks and blessings - John
