Today, we present a wild and flowering conversation between two poets, writers, philosophers, and theobiologians Bayo Akomalofe and Sophie Strand. This conversation is from a 2022 SAND Community Gathering. To hear the full conversation with Q&A from the live webinar you can view it here (with SAND Membership). In Greek Mythology, the Titan Kronos eats an indigestible stone and vomits up the new Olympic pantheon of gods. In our current time, people planted in stratigraphic layers of shared trauma find themselves uniquely ill – physically and mentally. We are unable to digest food and unable to digest violence. What if indigestion – practical and mythical – was a sign that a new world was threatening to be born? The very basis of our nucleated cells is an ancient botched bacterial cannibalism. What if our inability to digest certain injustices was an invitation to vomit up a new pantheon? And in an age when we are all threaded through with microplastics and blood pressure stabilizers, what does it mean to start to physically grow into new shapes around incursions we cannot properly assimilate or expel? Bayo Akomolafe (Ph.D.), rooted with the Yoruba people in a more-than-human world, is the father to Alethea and Kyah, the grateful life-partner to Ije, son and brother. A widely celebrated international speaker, posthumanist thinker, poet, teacher, public intellectual, essayist, and author of two books, These Wilds Beyond our Fences: Letters to My Daughter on Humanity's Search for Home (North Atlantic Books) and We Will Tell our Own Story: The Lions of Africa Speak, Bayo Akomolafe is the Founder of The Emergence Network and host of the online postactivist course, ‘We Will Dance with Mountains'. He currently lectures at Pacifica Graduate Institute, California and University of Vermont, Burlington, Vermont. He sits on the Board of many organizations including Science and Non-Duality (US) and Ancient Futures (Australia). In July 2022, Dr. Akomolafe was appointed the inaugural Global Senior Fellow of University of California's (Berkeley) Othering and Belonging Institute. He has also been appointed Senior Fellow for The New Institute in Hamburg, Germany. He is the recipient of the New Thought Leadership Award 2021 and the Excellence in Ethnocultural Psychotherapy Award by the African Mental Health Summit 2022. Sophie Strand is a writer based in the Hudson Valley who focuses on the intersection of spirituality, storytelling, and ecology. Yet it would probably be more authentic to call her a neo-troubadour animist with a propensity to spin yarns that inevitably turn into love stories. Give her a salamander and a stone and she'll write you a love story. Sophie was raised by house cats, puff balls, possums, raccoons, and an opinionated, crippled goose. She believes strongly that all thinking happens interstitially – between beings, ideas, differences, mythical gradients. She is the author of The Flowering Wand: Rewilding the Sacred Masculine and The Madonna Secret. She is also finishing a collection of essays about navigating an incurable genetic disease and early trauma through ecological storytelling.

We are so honored to share an episode with you from one of our favorite podcasts, FOR THE WILD. --- “The fugitive is the figure of the Anthropocene, a political invitation to unlearn ‘mastery,' to fall to the Earth, to learn how to commune with soil… In a sense, the fugitive answers the question that is hidden within the words of my Elders, when they say: ‘in order to find your way, you must become lost.'” Returning guest Bayo Akomolafe guides listeners on a journey to lose oneself and leave behind the ties that bind us to world views that do not serve humanity's wholeness. Touching on the historical roots of fugitivity from the politics of the slave ship and beyond, Bayo challenges us to lean into the “political un-project” that is fugitivity, blurring societally-imposed binaries, in order to better understand the human territory and to make more-than-human sanctuary through post activism. If justice is an action and not a static state, how can we embody it? Twisting and turning through the contours of human consciousness and understanding, Bayo and Ayana dive into meaningful and existential questions. How do we cope with the complexity of being “imbricated with the things we are trying to escape from?” What is the shape and form of accountability? How do we commune with the unknowable? Rooted in trickster philosophy and abundant spirituality, Bayo encourages mindful and playful questions. These are times in which we must reframe our understanding of justice, of history, and of humanity. At the heart of the complex questioning in the episode, lies the vital question of our time – what does it mean to be a human in times such as this? Bayo Akomolafe (Ph.D.), rooted with the Yoruba people in a more-than-human world, is the father to Alethea and Kyah, the grateful life partner to Ije, son and brother. A widely celebrated international speaker, posthumanist thinker, poet, teacher, public intellectual, essayist, and author of two books, These Wilds Beyond our Fences: Letters to My Daughter on Humanity's Search for Home (North Atlantic Books) and We Will Tell Our Own Story: The Lions of Africa Speak, Bayo Akomolafe is the Visionary Founder of The Emergence Network and host of the online postactivist course, ‘We Will Dance with Mountains'.

Trained in clinical psychology, Bayo Akomolafe, Ph.D. now works as an author, speaker, and professor. He is recognized worldwide for his thoughtful and unconventional take on global crises, trauma and social change.  Bayo starts off by sharing a proverb from his Yoruba people: “In order to find your way, you must become lost”. This leads to an invitation to being in the world in a different way.  He offers an alternative, non-pathologizing way to think about trauma and our adaptations to it. Instead of pathologizing what we are afraid of, he invites us to “lean into the cracks, the failures… and maybe by performing your way through those cracks, you may find other ways of being in the world.” Throughout this episode, Bayo offers a possible new vision through stories of transformation.

Taking his talents to college, he successfully played baseball and track throughout his career. As his education wrapped up, a lightbulb went off about the opportunities he could have working with students and athletes himself. From this original thought in his college dorm room, Ricky got started and has never looked back. Ricky is an accomplished teacher, coach, and mentor for students and athletes all across the greater Boston area. From his time as a PE teacher to creating new opportunities for high-achieving athletes, Ricky has always made a difference on and off the field. Now Ricky has created his own company called IJE and is working with PLT4M to make the very best educational speed & agility content. Ricky seems to always be on the move!

In this episode we hear stories from IJE – pronounced eejay. A conceptual/expressionist artist with MA Fine Art from Birmingham School of Art. The conversation points to nothing really stopping you even when fear has a compelling narrative of what you can and can't do.The episode ends with some spoken word by Ije...I RELEASE MY COLOURS Sticks and stones never broke my bones, but names have always harmed meSo, I lived in fear, lived with the fear of my potential to be greatTo blaze a swathe of light before me, around me, through time and space I have mastered the litany of fearI have closed my ears and soul to the sounds of other's judgementEver hopeful I now expose myself, my light and shadeI release my colours, I shout my nameIje’s art seeks to reshape embodied notions, responding to encounters with time, space and change through making and documenting. Generating works activated through gesture, colour, texture, layering, repetition and reflectivity. Inspired predominantly by encounters in expansive spaces of mountain, moorland or coastal areas; increasingly Ije is also expressing her current manifestation as a woman of colour, as a Scottish / Nigerian healer. • Paintings, photography and original prints • PFHOEMS - integrating painting, film, photography and poetry • Sculpture, installation, shaping spaces - chaining/knotting/weaving materials such as silicone, yarn, metal and textilesUndertaking durational activity in the landscape, she wonders about what went before her and what may lie ahead; Wondering about singularities and multiples, about time, capacity for change and universal energy. Ije uses colour, memory, fabrications, words, feelings, documenting, repetition and gesture to create textured, vibrant paintings, written/spoken word and sculptures/installations. Ije engages in exhibiting and selling works, and takes commissions and runs individual/small group creative painting workshops. Since 2012 Ije has also run a business as a holistic practitioner working 1:1 using an eclectic range of therapeutic approaches – reflexology, massage, aromatherapy, energy work, crystal healing, Personal Effectiveness Coaching and mentoring.

Reflejos de su gloria
Números-034 La presencia de Dios en la rebeldía

Reflejos de su gloria

Play Episode Listen Later Feb 25, 2019 7:43


Estamos leyendo en el libro de Números, yendo esta semana hacia la última sección del libro. Al leer sobre la vida de los israelitas en el desierto, me llama la atención que en los momentos en que el pueblo ha elegido desobedecer a Dios y seguir su propio camino, incluso ahí, Dios los acampaña. Los de Israel no entraron a tomar la tierra, y tuvieron que ir errando por el desierto durante 40 años, pero Dios no los dejó abandonados. Dios estuvo con ellos durante todo el trayecto. Leemos cómo el pueblo volvía a Dios en ocasiones y Dios les daba victorias, pero en otros momentos los mismos que habían venido a Dios para pedir su protección y habían gustado la victoria se olvidaban para quejarse. Justo después de la victoria ante el rey Arad, nos dice el capitulo 21: 4-5 “Después partieron del monte de Hor, camino del Mar Rojo, para rodear la tierra de Edom; y se desanimó el pueblo por el camino. Y habló el pueblo contra Dios y contra Moisés: ¿Por qué nos hiciste subir de Egipto para que muramos en este desierto? Pues no hay pan ni agua, y nuestra alma tiene fastidio de este pan tan liviano.”Habían tenido una victoria, pero tendrían que viajar hacia el Mar Rojo para rodear Edom porque no les permitían cruzar su territorio (Edom eran los descendientes de Esaú?) Vemos que tuvieron que retroceder, para poder seguir avanzando. Esto los desanimó y murmuraron contra Dios y contra Moisés. Dios aquí protege a Moisés, el cuál ya había recibido la queja de este pueblo en tantas ocasiones. Dios no les da contestación, pero vemos que les viene un verdadero problema, unas serpientes venenosas que mordían a muchos y los mataban con su veneno. Es entonces que el pueblo se da cuenta de su pecado, incluso sin necesidad de que Dios ni nadie les reprenda. Cuando viene la verdadera dificultad se dan cuenta que todas sus quejas eran sin sentido. Vienen a Dios arrepentidos. Nos dice el versículo 7: “Entonces el pueblo vino a Moisés y dijo: Hemos pecado por haber hablado contra Jehová, y contra ti; ruega a Jehová que quite de nosotros estas serpientes. Y Moisés oró por el pueblo.”Dios instruye a Moisés que haga una serpiente de bronce en un asta para que cualquiera que fuere mordido y mirare a ella viviera. Y así fue, “ Moisés hizo una serpiente de bronce, y la puso sobre un asta; y cuando alguna serpiente mordía a alguno, miraba a la serpiente de bronce, y vivía.”Números 21:9 A esta historia haría referencia siglos más tarde el evangelio de Juan para explicar la obra sanadora de Cristo: “Y como Moisés levantó la serpiente en el desierto, así es necesario que el Hijo del Hombre sea levantado.” Juan 3:14.Aunque atacado por el veneno mortal, todo aquel que mirara hacia aquella serpiente de bronce viviría. Del mismo modo, aunque nosotros estemos manchados por el pecado, al mirar a Cristo, en Hijo del Hombre levantado en la cruz, recibimos vida. Cristo es el sacrificio que quita el veneno del pecado. Es Cristo el que Dios ha provisto para darnos perdón y salvación. Tras este incidente, vemos que el pueblo de Dios pudo seguir el camino hacia Obot, Ije-abarim, rodeando Moab, hasta el pozo de Beer donde Dios proveyó agua para el pueblo. Vemos que Dios en todo momento los acompañó. Les dio victoria ante pueblos que les atacaron: los cananeos del Neguev, los amorreos de Hesbón, Didón, Nofa y Medea, Jázer, y los de Basán. Dios estuvo con ellos, dando ánimo ante el peligro y proporcionando la victoria: Diciendo, como en el 21:34: “No tengas miedo, porque en tu mano los he entregado.” Lo que me llama la atención, como he comentado al principio, es que Dios los está cuidando, incluso cuando el pueblo es desobediente y quejica. Soy madre, y maestra, y por eso puedo llegar a entenderlo un poco. Cuando deseas el bien para tus hijos o tus alumnos, aún cuando son desobedientes y quejicas, no los abandonas. Puede que tengas que proporcionarles un castigo que les muestre el mal que están haciendo, y en muchas ocasiones, el mal que se están haciendo a ellos mismos. Pero no por eso les deseas mal tú. Al contrario, aún cuando no han entendido el daño que su comportamiento está causando, los acompañas pacientemente, esperando que en algún momento, como en el incidente de las serpientes, se den cuenta de su error y estén preparados para rectificar. Esto es porque los amas y lo que más deseas para ellos es el bien. Así es nuestro buen Dios. En el libro de Jeremías Dios dirá a su pueblo: “Porque yo sé los pensamientos que tengo acerca de vosotros, dice Jehová, pensamientos de paz, y no de mal, para daros el fin que esperáis.”En su bondad, no puede dejar que el rebelde siga su camino sin pararlo, aunque esto le cause dolor. Sin embargo, en medio del dolor, Dios siempre está ahí, cuidando y pacientemente esperando que nos demos cuenta y vengamos a Él arrepentidos y deseosos de su comunión. ¿Has estado huyendo de Dios? ¿O quizás amas a alguien que está alejado del Señor? No temas, Dios está a la distancia de un brazo extendido, está atento al clamor de aquellos que arrepentidos vienen a Él. Te animo a que si estás huyendo de Dios y no has visto las victorias que Él te da, que vayas a Él y disfrutes de su comunión y buena voluntad. Si estás orando por alguien que está huyendo, te animo a confiar en Dios y no temer, porque Dios está interesado en sus almas. Continúa orando y amando, confiando en el Señor.
