Hierophanic Moment

A memory of our mother at her most loving. Such moments reveal the true love our mothers have for us underneath their misprocessing*. Bringing them to mind, for instance during meditation, can greatly raise our Life Energy.

Quotation: “Nearly all of us have at least one image of our mother at a moment when we Knew she was holy…. This is how we should see—should constantly see—our mothers. And then All as her.” (The Diamond Color Meditation, 13-14)

Commentary: Hierophany – “the manifestation of the sacred” – comes from two roots, the Greek heiros, meaning holy and the Indo-European root bha, to shine (from which photo is also derived).

Timeline: 2005 to present.
