Aprašymas

THE BODY-YOUR FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT SOUL MATE In The Left Hand of God, John Davidson offers a ride-along on an intimate, sometimes sensuous, and occasionally humorous search for his soul mate. The twist is his discovery that, among the many soul mates we might have, the most important one is our own body. Davidson's poetry reflects the ambiguous and gradual process of shifting personal identity from personality to soul that is in play beneath the level of conscious consent. In his earlier book, The Soul's Critical Path, he described the eventual result of that shift as the acquisition of a soul perspective. A soul perspective is not simply a concept, but a lived, experiential identification with soul. A consciousness filled with the knowing "I am the soul" holds the body, mind, emotions, and personality at enough distance to permit the emerged soul to see itself as a distinct entity. With that distance, the soul can also recognize the body as its first and most significant soul mate. Only a self-aware soul can constellate the Love that emanates from both Heaven and Earth into a sense of love and safety for its body. If the soul can woo its mate thus, the body cannot help but fall in love with the soul. With the body as the soul's partner, the soul will have gained the strong legs-the life force-it needs to do its work of co-creation on the planet. Come along. You might enjoy the ride.
