GETHSEMANE ENCOUNTERS

[@jeannined7532]

I think Jung would be pleased to see the Christian Contemplative path being rediscovered during our times. Richard Rohr, Cynthia Bourgeault, Ilia Delio, Thomas Keating to name a few. The key to sacrilizing the world is developing the eyes with which to see it. As Jesus said, "the Kingdom of God is among you, but you do not see it." I am deeply moved by your sharing of what Gethsamane means to you. It has been a key archetype in my own life and strengthened me to consent to the inevitable challenges and choices every human is called to confront.

He suffers WITH us, and FOR US. He was tempted by Satan, he demonstrates compassion for his enemies and even asks God to forgive the people killing him. While he’s on the cross he made sure his mother was taking care of. He was stern when he drove out the money changers from the temple, and his boldness in his disagreements with the Pharisees. He went through IT ALL and still had LOVE. Beliefs aside Jesus is undeniably the best hero out there.

Wow, great episode. Finding the sacredness and beauty in the suffering and what wants to be expressed through you… two pieces that stand out.

Lovely podcast.. I would have loved a comment on betrayal as another main arch of the Gethsemane events. How does the betrayal, by the least conscious of the disciples, become the catalyst that makes the transition to sacrifice so real? Why is it essential for the the story to unfold and does it cement the manifestation of Higher Self vs. the Ego? In the New Testament but also in life :)

’Tension in Gethsemane’ In the garden where Christ took his test While his brethren fell into a rest At a crossroads inside He was forced to decide As the olives and ego were pressed
