More common thoughts come in....

A blog writer by the name of William Bond posted this in Sep of 2009.

I found it insightful and worthwhile posting here.


This is a comment i made on Facebook and decided to reproduce it here.

- Enlightenment is the key, to our human difficulties, if every one became enlightened then we wouldn't have as many problems. The problem is that it seems only a minority of people actually want to search for this.

I believe that the root of all our problems is that the Great Mother in her wisdom gave us all the gift of freewill. So we all have the freewill to guided and helped by the Great Mother or we all have the freewill to defy her and turn our backs on Her. Most of us have chosen to either to turn our backs on her to go our own way, or have done so because we have been deceived into worshiping false male gods.

When we turned our backs on the Great Mother and went our own way to find ourselves, it was men who led the way. This is why we have a patriarchal society, because men created it. We have done this in order to find our own individuality. But when we collectively want to return to the love, peace and harmony of the Great Mother it will be women who will lead the way. (This is also explained in the New Testament in the story of the Prodigal Son.)

The masculine gives us individuality, but also separation, and in its extreme form gives us, conflict, hatred, violence and chaos. It is evident, besides procreation, a world of only men would quickly destroy themselves. The feminine gives us love and nurturing, and in its extreme form gives us Oneness where all individuality disappears. So enlightenment is about bringing together these two forces within ourselves.

All of us know about the conflict and chaos of a world ruled by the masculine, living in a patriarchal world. To further our education we then need to experience the love and harmony of a world ruled by women. So that we can live as individuals in a loving and caring world.

This is a wonderful post - i do feel that Women and men need to embrace one another in a symbiotic but inequal relationship. men need Women, and we have a little value as well. Lovely post, thank You :-)

A bit idealistic perhaps, but yes, he has the archetypes right. And the right prescription.
