We meet just before the time of Candlemas and Bridget’s Day, a traditional time of renewal and rediscovering the light as it grows within us. As Nature gradually begins to revive, so also what was sleeping within us begins to wake up!
The words of Yeshua, “ask, seek, knock” (Matt. 7:7) form a center-point of our time together. Heard in Aramaic these words ask us to:
“Open yourself like a channel for the water of your desire; you will see love’s fruit.
“Allow your inner gnawing emptiness to really empty you, making space for the fire of fulfillment.
“Knock and hollow your self, release hopes and fears. After contraction comes expansion, after closing comes opening.”
He suggests we sing a note of simplicity and strength, responding to the world through the lens of the heart. Thinking, acting, and being are required for this work.
Using chant, sacred art, meditation, body prayer, and creative processes, we will consider together Yeshua’s words and the call to “tikkun olam,“ Hebrew words meaning, “to repair the world.”
