When my older boy was five, he painted a picture for me. There were two objects on it, the bigger one looked without a doubt like a phallus, while I couldn't exactly figure out the smaller object. Curious, I thought to myself, looks like Freud was right after all. But then I noticed that in the 'For Papa' text, one p was turned upside down, so I took it at an invite to turn the picture around. I hardly could believe me eyes when I did it, I suddenly saw a Jesus figure blessing a child!
The symbolic message is hardly a new one in the spiritual community. Redirect the sexual energy, which is a biological creation of life, to the spiritual realm and spread the spiritual sperm, the holy ghost. I hope you would agree with me that a 5 year old who hasn't heard of any of this in his life can only produce these insights on a subconscious level. But this brings me to my second point, that of the Tao. Living in the now is easy if you have learned by experience that everything that happens to you and everybody you meet is a gift to you. Once you experience this magnificent force you are just hungry for more. The German word for curious, neugierig, literally means 'greedy for news'. Please keep it coming Tao!
