I now find myself asking if possibly this is the time, the age, for Sophia:....a God image capable of moving with humanity into the next evolutionary era when the universe will be experienced...as an intimate, interconnected, and diverse communion of subjects...
Divine Sophia defies the supremacy of linear logic and rational analysis, she rejects the pyramid of hierarchical dualism by resisting our dichotomies....and withstanding the compartmentalized, objective mind-set to which we have been educated. In a word, Wisdom undermines the need to control life.
...when Divine Sophia, the Beloved, the Word "awakens"...then absolutely everyone and everything in the universe is experienced as indissolubly and harmoniously interconnected and part of an emerging Mystery that binds everything together.
