The gifts of the Goddess begin with Her very presence. Our blindness comes from a feeling of worthlessness and undeservability that permeates our attempts to grow closer to the Goddess. And our attempts are greatly complicated by a chauvinism that is devastating to both women and men and leaves us all feeling as if we are no more than human capital, products off an assembly line. Lazaris draws a picture of what an attitude free of chauvinism would look like -- where imagination and creativity stand next to logic and reason, where spirituality and chaos are valued as much as system and order. From this new balance, elevated above the either/or mentality of chauvinism, we can begin to receive the Goddess. With a beautiful meditation that heals our unworthiness and chauvinism and begins to open us up to the Presence of the Goddess. (1 hour)
