PREFACE By Anaiya Sophia
(The Divine Human: fusing opposites, committing to daily renewal)
The core mystery of this era is the birth of the Divine Human. A being that has fused together within himself or herself all the opposites: light and dark, body and soul, transcendent and immanent, masculine and feminine.
Trust, holy desire, and humility allow one to step off the cliff and risk all. Inevitably this book shall speak the loudest to those who have these essential qualities or want to develop them.
Trust is based on a willingness to explore and an ability to evolve. We simply cannot trust a person we don’t respect, don’t accept, and don’t desire to be vulnerable with. The attempt to do so is one of the most frustrating aspects of relationship. Without trust, love is infantile and selfish. Indeed, to call it love is to misname it and trivialize it. At the beginning stages of relationship, we must ask ourselves these questions in the cool, still center of our being. Do I respect this person? Do I accept this person? Do I want to be vulnerable with this person? Does this person have a true and real center? Does this person have what it takes to hold me and all that I am as well as the mystery of all that I shall become?
We have to commit to a daily infusion of prayer, love, humility, openness, and truth on every level of our being. Without daily and consistent replenishment, our spiritual backbone may break. Let us not underestimate the gravity of what we are embarking upon. We are asking to be made divine, to be restored to our original wholeness. We are asking to fuse the inherent holiness of our soul with our human self, thus creating a divinized human—an archetype for the awakened, co-creative beings of the new Earth. God’s eyes have always seen us as holy and whole.
(Wounded attractions, the Holy Spirit, and the mystic’s confidence)
Most relationships at this time on Earth are wounded attractions: one wound in one person resonates to the other. The hole in one person attracts a hook in another and vice versa. The hole is a wound, an opening in one partner; the hook in the other, like a tentacle, grasps instantly at this hole. They meet, and a potent charge is felt, which many misinterpret as love.
Essentially, what you want from the other person is what you are unwilling to feel within yourself.
The Holy Spirit is often depicted as the Holy Sophia, the feminine aspect of the Godhead, and her presence bestows comfort and wisdom. Connection with the Holy Spirit births a comforting sensation of loving clarity that instantly reveals profound levels of wisdom. This divine energy heals, corrects, and harmonizes all involved. All it takes is some deep breathing. In times of uncertainty allow yourself to feel all your feelings, allow the body to become liquid, and stop trying to figure everything out with your mind. Then ask the following questions. Holy Spirit, what is the truth of this situation? Holy Spirit, what would you have me say, do, decide? Holy Sophia, what within me is arising to be healed? Holy Sophia, how may I assist you in healing and harmonizing my beloved? Holy Spirit, what steps can I take to further prepare, heal, and deepen?
The bodhisattva vow at the core of Mahayana Buddhism and the commitment of the Christ Path to total, radical, and joyful surrender both point to offering one’s energies for the benefit of all sentient beings. Here we have the deepest imaginable truth of the divine embodiment process. This truth actively serves the awakening of all beings that are able to make that vow and sustain the necessary focus, commitment, and love in all circumstances.
“The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.’’
Divine joy bubbles up for no external reason or purpose. It is the very current, fabric, and substrata of creation and the basis of the Divine Human. Divine joy is part of God’s love, and is inseparable from it. It is the very infallible sign of Divine Presence! Joy lives in you as you—and it increases as you shift from living in the ego-mind to living in the heart.
Motherhood is the continual process of birthing something from our most intimate place within, and releasing it out into the world in love.
(Gaia’s DNA field, divine joy, and the alchemy of sacred union)
Gaia helps us with this by conducting and relaying information between different forms of life through DNA. There is a higher magnetic power latent within your DNA. Such magnetic power is the foundation for the Law of Attraction. Until you resonate with the Earth’s hum, the grace of this law is not fully realized in your life, your path, your embodiment, or your relationships. Earth is the attractor. Nature grounds us and aligns our desire for union. Whenever your frequency is out of alignment with Gaia’s frequency, you are out of alignment with your natural rhythms—genetically, spiritually, and physically. As Earth’s fields are now changing rapidly, so too does this frequency, and this is the cause for many of the disturbances in us, and on Earth, today.
Rather, a mystic is a person who has had an experience of God’s love so unmistakable that it changes him or her forever, imparting a confidence that cannot be shaken, a humility that cannot be doubted, a freedom that exudes love, a gentleness, and an authenticity. A mystic knows from experience, not books, that we are each beautiful beyond our understanding, loved beyond our capacity to love, united beyond our perceptions of difference and separation. For me, a mystic is one who longs for an all-embodied and ever encompassing stream of wisdom that delights, deepens, and extends out into the world as pure, unsullied radiance.
True alchemy is both fiery and tender at the same time. It includes the traditional cool practices of transcendence, while blending them with the hot fires of erotic initiation and warm reverence for the Earth.
Embarking on a Sacred Relationship is a prayer and journey with someone who is willing to go through this enormously strange experience of uncovering his or her own divine humanity with you, while allowing you to blossom completely as well. This level of relationship has to be treated with the greatest delicacy and reverence—because everything is at stake. Either you will cling to your ego, resist, and eventually separate or melt in deep trust, allow, and let go.
