Letter from Chameli

Dear sisters,

In our Return of the Goddess teleclass series, we have just finished or week practicing with Sri Lakshmi- Goddess of abundance and beauty, may we all open to her invitation to limitless blessings as the summer time is upon us (and also for those of you who are entering wintertime! :))

I have lots of traveling ahead of me, and I look forward to meet many of you in person. I will be traveling with Arjuna on his book tour for the next months sharing the Yogini pratices with the women, it is always wonderful to spend time with him on the road...

and I also look forward to join Ramya for our Secret of the Divine Feminine Retreat once again. Since this is the last time I will visit Sweden this year, I hope to see many of our swedish sisters there!

I send you much much love, always

Chameli

The Return of The Goddess Tele class

We are in the middle of the first series of The Return of the Goddess Teleclasses with women participating from Europe and USA. The Goddesses have been profound teachers and on the Goddess Blog we are building a noursihing and juicy community.

Join us for the next series starting August 28th, with a free introduction class August 21th

This time we will have a German and a Brittish number aswell as an international one. This means that women in these country only pay domestic phoning fees!!!

Write to Goddess@wildlove.org if you have ANY questions,and we will be delighted to help you!

Do you have a longing to learn more about the embodiment of the Divine Feminine, but don’t want to travel? Here is the opportunity specially designed for you! Welcome to join Chameli and other feminine practitioners for a four weeks course, from your own home!

Welcome to join the FREE Introduction class August 21th.

In Part 2 ( starting August 28th), you will through specific practices explore the immense wisdom, creativity and peace of the earth goddess Gaia and hand in hand with Maha Kali you will take a visit to the dark side. With Changing woman-the great Navaho Goddess you will practice to "walk in beauty" and in the final week with Meerabai you will explore the ecstasy of your devotional heart.

The Return Of the Goddess Part 3: Inanna, Saraswati, Green Tara, Kwan Yin

The Longing

by Carina-Maria Moller


Openness I am
Space in shape of woman
 
Dancing with the Beloved
On the earth
 
Love I sing
Love I speak
 
Longing come true

The Invitation


The Invitation -
by oriah mountain dreamer



It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living.
I want to know what you ache for
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.

It doesn’t interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool
for love
for your dream
for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon...
I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow
if you have been opened by life’s betrayals
or have become shrivelled and closed
from fear of further pain.

I want to know if you can sit with pain
mine or your own
without moving to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.

I want to know if you can be with joy
mine or your own
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us to be careful. to be realistic
to remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me
is true.
I want to know if you can
disappoint another to be true to yourself.
If you can bear the accusation of betrayal
and not betray your own soul.
If you can be faithless
and therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see Beauty
even when it is not pretty
every day.
And if you can source your own life
from its presence.

I want to know if you can live with failure
yours and mine
and still stand at the edge of the lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon,
“Yes.”

It doesn’t interest me
to know where you live or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up
after the night of grief and despair
weary and bruised to the bone
and do what needs to be done
to feed the children.

It doesn’t interest me who you know
or how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand
in the centre of the fire with me
and not shrink back.

It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom
you have studied.
I want to know what sustains you from the inside
when all else falls away.

I want to know if you can be alone
with yourself
and if you truly like the company you keep
in the empty moments.
