Anakha Coman leads us through the realities of fusing the mystical and erotic within ourselves...in actually becoming Love. From a deep inner prompting and an inspired conversation with Andrew Harvey (http://www.andrewharvey.net), her spiritual director, she began a new, committed path of awakening the Sacred Heart and fully embodying Love's Presence. She now shares what she is learning and experiencing on that journey into embodied love. One of the aspects of the awakening process she addresses in this video blog is the disorientation that is an inevitable part of personal transfiguration.
There are five key aspects of this transfiguration, that come out of fusing the mystical and erotic energies:
1) The Christed Heart, the birth of a new heart, a Sacred Heart...a devoted, donated heart capable of unconditioned and unconditional love.
2) The Sacramental Perception, with a renewed vision we are able to perceive all that is as Sacred, all duality and polarization melts into the Oneness of Love.
3) The Illumined Mind, The Transformed mind arises out of losing our limited mind, and receiving an inspired, creative, systemic mind rather than a fear-based, constricted thought system.
4) The Awakened Body, A body that is alive, infused and cellularly activated with the Presence of God. In the Judeo-Christian tradition, it is called "the resurrection body " and "the glorified body." The prophet Isaiah said, "The dead shall live, their bodies shall rise" (Isa. 26:19). St. Paul called it "the celestial body" or "spiritual body " (soma pneumatikon) (I Corinthians 15:40).In Sufism it is called "the most sacred body " (wujud al-aqdas) and "supracelestial body " (jism asli haqiqi).In Taoism, it is called "the diamond body," and those who have attained it are called "the immortals" and "the cloudwalkers."In Tibetan Buddhism it is called "the light body."In Tantrism and some schools of yoga, it is called "the vajra body," "the adamantine body," and "the divine body."In Kriya yoga it is called "the body of bliss."In Vedanta it is called "the superconductive body."In Gnosticism and Neoplatonism, it is called "the radiant body."In the alchemical tradition, the Emerald Tablet calls it "the Glory of the Whole Universe" and "the golden body." The alchemist Paracelsus called it "the astral body."In the Hermetic Corpus, it is called "the immortal body " (soma athanaton).In some mystery schools, it is called "the solar body."In Rosicrucianism, it is called "the diamond body of the temple of God."In ancient Egypt it was called "the luminous body or being" (akh).In Old Persia it was called "the indwelling divine potential" (fravashi or fravarti).In the Mithraic liturgy it was called "the perfect body " (soma teilion).In the philosophy of Sri Aurobindo, it is called "the divine body," composed of supramental substance.In the philosophy of Teilhard de Chardin, it is called "the ultrahuman."
5) The Liberated Soul, unbound by past limitations, we are free to move with boundless creativity, wisdom, love and joy. We fully realize the Kingdom of Heaven in our own indwelling temple and at the core of our lives.
As we awaken as Love, we begin experiencing a new freedom...
a new freedom of spirit...
a new freedom of movement...
a new freedom of creativity
a new freedom of joy
