Sacred ceremony may be an exercise and practice of Speaking new language, a speaking WITH the Mother/Place of Being … a “Con-course” as I name it in PaGaian Cosmology Introduction (p.9, and also p.45). We need to find new language for speaking with our Place of Being, so that we may shape our thinking anew – and so, shape our world: SPELL it: sacred ceremony may be a Poiesis – the making of a world. And in every moment we may place attention to the words we speak, the story coming out of the mouth … the meta-narrative – the cosmology – embedded in them.
a poem – which begins with a piece of a poem by Robin Morgan:
“Oh let me hear you hear
me speak oh
speak to
me oh let me” … (Robin Morgan)
O One who Hears
Let me Speak
What is it that
Wants to be Spoken?
O speak to me o
speak o
hear me speak you
am given, received … Met
