Wow Fernando, You took my breath away with your questions. There is so much I cannot say; the words are caught in my throat, but I appreciate you asking. When reality is defined with statements like "At this centre (the organ of his manhood) the balance is broken. And a broken balance is the source of power. Creative power. Always. This is why, in the Dreaming of all peoples, the phallus is a symbol of potency, a promise of becoming." who hears the Feminine voice? Who cares? Not even she, her language was long ago buried.
Your Mother is dying, how will it be to live on a dead planet, like Mars, the planet of war? Or with her greatest effort will she blow you away to give birth to something better? Your questions I cannot answer. Ask you wives and daughters. I love you.

Having a feminine voice in the group is an interesting addition, i think. Why do you think the great scholars of mankind, the prophets, the poets (with a few exceptions), the sages and leaders of mankind have always been male? There´s a lot we can learn with females but they are often put behind the scenes... Why would that be? Is woman evil, does she lead to confusion has she been less imposing throughout time? Yours truly, Fernando. ----- Mensagem de [email protected] --------- Data: Sun, 27 Sep 2009 12:57:10 -0400 De: MarshaV <[email protected]> Endereço para Resposta (Reply-To): [email protected] Assunto: Re: [MD] ego vs self Para: [email protected] > > > John, > > Fine, if this is what you think, because reality is whatever you think it to > be (ease to label, hard to define). > > > Marsha > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John Carl > Sent: Sunday, September 27, 2009 12:48 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [MD] ego vs self > > The way I look at it Marsha, is this: "What I think" is one thing > "Reality" is another.
