Internation call for all women - Gather the WOMEN 5 comments

3 Nov 2002 @ 19:05, by Jenese James No man enters into physical life cept through the body of woman, for SHE is the birther/giver of life. Woman as sacred is not something that is historically presented to us in our religious stories. Indeed SHE has been historically presented as evil, the cause of mans sins. For millions of women throughout our world SHE is persecuted simply because SHE is female. In China they kill girl babies, now there are not enough women for the men to marry, so little regard for the female do they have. In the East SHE has to be covered from head to foot, simply because men see her as the temptress, as wanton sexuality, yet who is it who has Harems, and multiple wives. Women are made to account for the males un accountability, for his own lust that he cannot control, she must be made to cover herself. All over this world women are classed as inferior, and although this is changing and threatening men’s' absolute control, She nevertheless is often subject to his abuse. Yet NO man comes into physical life without first coming through women. SHE is the creatix, the GODDESS. women and men are complementary to each other, yet our religious story does not present that, and so an insidious duality and dysfunction arises in the minds of men, and a sorrow sits in the hearts of women, for she is tired of contorting herself to some male defined way of being, SHE is tired of living in a male defined world that is fast taking us as a race to the brink of social and environmental chaos. SHE forgets she is the life giver, SHE forgets she has a powerful place and powerful voice in the world SHE forgets that the feminine principal is the active principal of love, nurture, compassion and peace SHE forgets that she has a Name ....WOMAN.....SHE.....HER...SISTER SHE forgets that she is sacred, SHE forgets that she is powerful, strong and wise SHE does not recognise that men fear her if she was to remember all these things SHE does not understand that in order to keep her in their world and at their whim, she must not remember who she is, and they will try every mental and emotional trick in the book to keep her from escaping and finding her most sacred and powerful self Yet the time has come for men to understand his loss, for that is what happens when he denies the sacredness of women, when he demeans her, he looses his opportunity to know love, wisdom and joy. SHE is the mother of the world SHE is the great cosmic mother in the flesh, and although she has forgotten herself, and although she acts tough to be in the mans world.....deep inside of her there is a growing awareness, an incoherent niggle that SHE is sacred, that she is strong, and that she does belong SO ARISE SACRED WOMAN AND SPEAK YOUR WORDS OF WISDOM IN THESE, OUR TURBULENT TIMES SO THAT MEN MAY HEAR AND UNDERSTAND, THAT YOU HAVE AWOKEN TO YOUR SELF and that you are ready to stand in complementary partnership with him, that he need not fear you any longer nor keep you oppressed via your own ignorance. Give him the opportunity of understanding your compassion, to see your wisdom and feel the strength of your convictions so that he may choose to stand beside you and not in front of you. This is an exciting time in history GATHER THE WOMEN.........a international call for all women....read more here.... This is a momentous time in history... ...when women all over the world are feeling the call to take a bold stand and demonstrate the feminine face of leadership— leadership based on the underlying principles of harmony, peace, balance, partnership and cooperation. Responding to that call... ...Women of Vision and Action is sponsoring a historic week-long event beginning March 3, 2003. The week will culminate on March 8 with locally sponsored Gather the Women events around the world. We all know that humanity needs healing and we believe that healing will come about when the masculine and feminine energies on the planet are brought into balance. In gathering, we women are setting the stage to reawaken the divine feminine and generate the healing energy needed to support and empower all women to speak out and to take the collaborative actions necessary to create a balanced, harmonious and peaceful world. In this Sacred Global Retreat we will connect with one another, feel our own innate power and initiate collective actions worldwide to bring the planet into harmony and balance. From this gathering positive action will flow and everyone will benefit from the healing power of our unique expressions. On March 3, 2003 (03-03-03) we begin... ...to gather the women—a call to women all over the globe to join (in whatever way is appropriate for each) in a week of introspective preparation for what we as women are creating... A week of prayer, meditation, introspection, forgiveness, purposeful action and envisioning a balanced world where all life is respected, appreciated and honored. Together we will co-create a new story... ...The old story, based on greed, competition, over-consumption, disrespect, disharmony and disempowerment has created an unsustainable, unhealthy, unstable and unsafe planet where no one can truly thrive. The new story will be infused with spirit-based principles of respect, honor, compassion, cooperation, harmony and life-sustaining love for all inhabitants of our planet. On March 8 (International Women's Day)... ...we are calling women around the world to gather in parks, community centers, places of worship, open spaces, meeting halls, arenas, living rooms— wherever 3 or more can gather— to join their energies with the millions of women worldwide who believe there is a better way and who are showing up in an energetic demonstration of the new way— the feminine way—of peace, compassion, understanding, openness, trust, and love. We encourage women everywhere to participate... ...to plan local Gather the Women events on March 8 and to participate in the week-long activities beginning March 3 to prepare themselves for the March 8 gathering and for the new era of harmony we are all together creating. More information... ...will be posted soon on this website about these activities, how you can add your suggestions, and how you can participate. Interactive features will be added to give women the opportunity to post their visions, intentions, prayers, planned actions, and event locations and also to be sponsors and to volunteer their time and talent.
