Ancestral wisdom drives our evolutionary processes by which, very slowly over the generations, our race develops higher consciousness. Yet, another development process is also at play, whereby a quantum shift can occur – a revolutionary mutation that catapults us into new awareness very suddenly, and we are no longer as bound up in old ways and their limited understandings. We can create inspired and totally new realities. Rudhyar: A CHILD IS SEEN BEING BORN OUT OF AN EGG. The emergence of new mutations according to the great rhythms of the cosmos.

Essence is spirit, and nothing is more essential
The symbolism of an egg is frequently found in various cultures; it represents the idea of a matrix. We are born into individuality out of a combination of influences – spiritual and material – such as the stardust of our physicality, the genetic coding carried in our DNA, and more subtle moulding of the zeitgeist and local geopolitical realities. That which pulls all these factors together into a single moment’s statement is essentially the matrix of what we are. The eggshell may seem to limit us, but it does not. When we are ready, we crack out – until then, the contours of our roots and circumstances do more to nurture than to constrain. We are sustained by the assurance that we belong, and we are protected. At first we identify the source of that protection externally as home, mother, community and earth-based securities. As we become mature and aware, we learn of the greater and more exhilarating truth – that in essence we are indestructible and incorruptible. Essence is spirit, and nothing is more essential. It cannot be broken down into components, destroyed or compromised. Whenever we are in alignment with our spiritual essence, we are completely free of danger – and this occurs whenever we are projecting our highest aspirations into the world. It may well be counter-intuitive, yet we are only ever truly safe when we are racing headlong with total blind enthusiasm towards our wildest dream. Whereas the self is found by cracking out of its nurturing eggshell, it is lost again only in full-on inspired enthusiasm. Somewhat surprisingly, it is therefore found at a higher level – a passionate level beyond ordinary reality. This naive state is by no means easy to access, simply because it is absolutely fearless. Any imperfect attempt can easily lead to an unhealthy reliance upon external forces for a sense of both stability and achievement, rather than a self-assertive, self-fulfilled state of being. |
