<div>we've been listening to Ekhart Tolle's, A New Earth (awesome!) while travelling and it talks extensively of the ego and various falsehoods which it (the ego/mind) uses to construct/uphold itself. One of these such egoic constructs is the role of gender. He (Tolle) suggests that when you identify with anything outside of yourself (the Spirit within you God/dess) that is a falsehood of the ego/mind - taking you further away from the Truth of Oneness, of The Moment. . . If your gender is a way that you define yourself. . . as in "I am a woman" and all the egoic stereotypes that come with that statement . . . i.e. "I am more in touch with my emotions because i am a woman", or " I am not as powerful as a man in this society", etc. . . then it is in fact just another way for your ego to identify with form - illusion. <br/>I am aware that I have in the past identified with such constructs of the ego. In fact, it very well may have been the basis for creating this space! I wanted to bring together a community of people that identified with these constructs. . .? <br/> <br/>A New Beginning: may this space be in fact a discussion forum for anyone male/female, God/dess, or otherwise to break down walls/veils created by falsehood of the mind/ego that cause separateness between the One Spirit that is Love in us All!!!!! <br/>also, may it be a space to share uplifting information, prayer, transformational resources, and other information pertinent to our Ascension as a Whole!!!!
