GETHSEMANE ENCOUNTERS

- The Garden of Gethsemane is the place of life crisis; it permits no escape or compromise. There, we suffer the agony of choosing between personal will or willing submission to something greater. Jesus’ companions could not stay awake, and God did not answer his prayers to be spared. We suffer dark and harrowing Gethsemanes alone. We may have to give up familiarity and safety for the unprecedented and unpredictable. We may ache from anguish and abandonment. Yet, to surrender voluntarily and consciously is to bow to a greater truth and yield to a higher power. In doing so, we transcend despair, resentment, and victimhood--and may find ourselves transformed. Gethsemane is a universal human story. If we can keep vigil and stay awake, we can hear the voice within. And say yes.
Here’s the Dream We Analyzed:
“I am on the UA-cam show, Good Mythical Morning. The two hosts are dumping buckets of spiders on me. They start with daddy long legs. I hunch over and can feel them tickling my back. Then a bigger black type of spider. Then the last bucket is scorpions. I stay hunched over, covering my head. With each bucket, I can feel the insects tickling me, but that’s it.”

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.
This is your most beautiful episode yet.
Wow, great episode. Finding the sacredness and beauty in the suffering and what wants to be expressed through you… two pieces that stand out.
I agree
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 :)
Very comforting. Thank you
very touching...... you guys made my holiday season
