- Опубликовано: 30 ноя 2017
- This extraordinary, extended SDI Learns video is all about St. Teresa of Ávila, one of Christianity's great mystics. Mirabai Starr .. www.sdievents.org/ ... is a respected scholar of what she calls the "divine feminine" and the translator of St.Teresa of Ávila's books. (She's also a keynote speaker at the SDI Conference in April - Seeking Connection 2018.) In this interview with SDI executive director, Anil Singh-Molares, Mirabai explores St. Teresa's views on contemplative practice, service, leading change as a woman, and helping all people find liberation. It's not just a chance to learn, it's a chance to celebrate a great woman mystic through one of her most eloquent contemporary interpreters.
As I hear you, I feel so deeply touched by the beauty of the soul. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this! It deeply touched my heart. The sacredness of all life is a much needed message today
Thanks Becca and Carol. Grateful for your engagement here. A little background on why Teresa of Avila resonates with our community ... SDI is a global, contemplative, educational nonprofit. We represent a group of spiritual companions, who use the art of listening to help others find their own spiritual paths. About 6,600 members in 42 countries. Spiritual companionship is its own calling. These are amazing people with patience, experience and the ability NOT to project their own issues and priorities, but rather encourage the person they companion to discover and embrace their own connection with a Higher Power, however they might name it. This is how our executive director, Anil Singh-Molares puts it in a recent article on the "Intimacy of Spiritual Companionship": "Spiritual directors have a special role to play by establishing a safe space for you, listening deeply and intently, spiritually, and letting your authentic self shine through. Ideally, we are mirrors that allow you to see yourself more clearly. We strive very hard not to impose our own vision, so as not to distort the image. All of this is meant to allow you to see what is already inside you. You are your own best teacher." www.sdiworld.org/

'Divine feminine' = gynocentric narcissism.
