Thunder Perfect Mind ~ Voice of the Divine Feminine ~ The Nag Hammadi Library

from Wisdom of the Masters · host Samaneri Jayasara

A reading of the ancient text, 'Thunder, Perfect Mind '- Voice of the Divine Feminine - using an amalgam of translations by George McCrae and Hal Taussig, et al.'Thunder, Perfect Mind' is the title of a coptic text that uses paradoxical language to describe a feminine divine figure who embodies both power and vulnerability, and who is present in all aspects of existence. The title itself, "Thunder, Perfect Mind," is a metaphorical description of this divine figure, highlighting her powerful voice (thunder) and her comprehensive, all-encompassing nature (perfect mind). It follows a poetic structure, and has received scholarly attention for its gnomic style and unclear subject. It speaks about the divine in paradoxical terms, as both honored and cursed, as life and death, and as both the cause of peace and war. The poem also emphasizes the idea that the divine exists both inside and outside of oneself, and that one's judgment and salvation are dependent on their relationship to the divine. It offers a unique perspective on the nature of the divine and the individual's relationship to it, and it highlights the idea of duality, non-duality, and the interconnectedness of opposing forces.🙏 May whatever goodness arises from these readings/offerings be for the benefit of all sentient beings.🔆 These podcasts are not monetized.
