The way you make love is the way God will be with you ~ Rumi
Have you considered how you connect with the rest of the world? And I am not just speaking physically but multi-level… think chakras and the energy each manifests. This is what is meant by a multi-dimensional being. This is who you are and perhaps a source of dysphoria or simply a feeling of not belonging. Why do you feel this way, you know the feeling of being separate from everything. Others don’t understand you and at times you don’t understand them either. Is this feeling necessary to live in the world of physical matter? Perhaps, however we are looking at the big picture today and your task is to relate this information to your own life and perspectives.
For more on the chakras and what I speak of there being different levels of being please read this article which is quite good at explaining each level of chakra, and remember each level has different dimensions(bodies) such as physical, emotional, mental, astral, etc. for more on this I found this article on human nature.
I realize this topic can be a bit overwhelming it has taken me many years to grasp only a fraction of this knowledge. Take one step at a time and with only a little effort the puzzle pieces fall into place. I can’t tell you how beautiful the finished product is because you must see that for yourself, and this could quite possibly be the reason you are here reading this now.
Moving on to another message which I find intriguing and again quite possibly the reason I am here writing this blog. I wish to more fully understand and embrace my inner being. This quote sums it up…
“When we touch the place in our lives where sexuality and spirituality come together, we touch our wholeness and the fullness of our power and at the same time our connection with a power larger than ourselves.”
― Judith Plaskow, Standing Again at Sinai: Judaism from a Feminist Perspective
Focusing more directly on just one aspect of the greater system, the second chakra in orchestra with the others seems to be extremely important to living a whole life.
“If sexuality is one dimension of our ability to live passionately in the world then in cutting off our sexual feelings we diminish our overall power to feel, know, and value deeply.”
― Judith Plaskow, Standing Again at Sinai: Judaism from a Feminist Perspective
How does this fit into the gender journey? And, how does our relationship to other-self determine the quality of life we live?
The answer lies within each person uniquely. Speaking from the transgender perspective I know I am a multi-dimensional being as I sense this acutely. Even the label human feels odd to me and as I work down the path, male, caucasian, american, heterosexual, woman, each identity is ephemeral in reality. Must I embrace my sexuality to define my being? Can I be without orientation? Is this desirable? The quote above would suggest embracing ones sexuality is the key to a full expression of self. From experience I have to agree.
