Description

Healing In The Light & The Art and Practice of Creativity consist of two separate writings. One is written for the youth of today, the other for those creators of the beautific light. "We have thought that procreation was just physical but, in actuality, its essence is spiritual. For our spirits to live, we must be in balance or union with our other half." Healing In The Light"The second abstraction (and perhaps the greater one in cognitive intensity) of a two fundamental or primary forces is the opening of the pathway that leads to the comprehension of the fundamental principle. Unless or until that distinction is made between a one order and a two (metaphysical) forces, the fundamental principle, in its entirety, will and does remain hidden preventing the beautific light from shining from each (partially) conscious soul." The Art and Practice of Creativity

Dedicated to:

Gina,
who was willing to feel the pain and choose the love.
Preface
This writing is the result of a young woman named Gina, who I met in the summer of 1997 in San Francisco. At that time, she was eighteen years old. Over the course of the next three months, we had many conversations concerning the philosophy of what I call Man and Woman Balance and, most appropriately, the problems facing the youth of today. Gina, herself a product of her generation, faces the promise of— nothing. How does one cope with such a future?

This writing is a general summation of the conversations between Gina and myself. I am using a question/answer format that, I believe, best captures, if not the exact words, the spirit of our many conversations. In some cases, I have extended the thought beyond our conversations for the purpose of this writing. In others, I have honed down my personal feelings for her in the hope that the spirit of our conversations will shine through.

Introduction: In Tribute to the Youth of Today

Time magazine ran an article in its September 1, 1997 issue entitled, It Ain’t Us Babe. The caption read, “Thirty years after the summer of love, the flower children’s kids envision— nothing.” A further comment by one of the kids interviewed said, “The only thing we have to rebel against is rebelling itself.”
Now, ask yourself, could you face a life and future of nothing? What an incredible burden to bear. Subconsciously, I believe these kids already know it is mostly over for them. Wouldn’t that explain why they act in ways that many of us find so troubling? But the deeper issue is why. Why do these kids face a future so bleak? The Time article did not adequately address this very important question.
One thing of which I think we can be certain is that the pain can no longer be denied. “I will be felt!” the pain screams out. Who amongst us will listen and feel?
Part 1 – The Light

“There isn’t any original sin, only pain.”
Why the Pain?

Can you please tell me why I have this pain in my heart?
Because you are not able to achieve that which you truly desire in life.
I’m just starting out, you know.
It doesn’t matter; you won’t be able to get there.
Why not?
Your future has been stolen from you, mortgaged away. Yours is the first generation born into a psycho-spiritual debt.
Are you suggesting that it doesn’t even matter what I want, that I will not be able to have it?
That’s correct.
I don’t believe you.
Perhaps not. But you feel it, don’t you?
Maybe.
Something is missing today. We are just going through the motions.
But then what is it all for?
You tell me.
You’re the one saying that there isn’t any hope for me.
It’s painful, isn’t it?
Yes, it is. There must be some hope.
Nope. None at all.
That is so incredibly hard to believe.
Yes, but you feel it. Your whole generation feels it.
What is one to do?
Feel it.
Feel no hope? That isn’t an answer.
Are you looking for answers, for hope?
Yes.
I’m sorry. I have none.
Then who are you to tell me there isn’t any hope?
You asked me why the pain. I told you, because there wasn’t any hope. Hey, I don’t blame you for being angry. I would be angry, too, if my future was stolen from me.
Do you have hope?
No, I don’t have any hope either.
How do you cope?
I feel it.
So you walk around feeling no hope?
That’s correct.
What kind of life is that?
It’s one of no hope.
And so.
You want an answer, don’t you?
Yes.
Are you willing to give up your hope?
What do you mean?
If there is an answer, it most likely lies below the pain of no hope.
So there is hope?
Only as you can give it up.
Give what up?
Hope.
So there is hope but only after I give it up?
What do you think?
Well, I kind of like that.
I thought you would.
What is the Hurt?

Hi.
How goes it?
Okay.
I brought you something.
Let me see. “Let Us Create Life Together.” Did you write this?
Yes.
I will read it.
Hope you are not feeling too much pain.
Not too much.
It’s just that there is something deeper.
I figured as much. I have been wondering why we have this pain.
Specifically?
Yes. I know you said it is the pain of no hope. But why do I hurt inside?
Perhaps it is life’s condition.
What do you mean?
Many of us like to believe that our hurt is due to some form of abuse, physical or emotional, usually as children. I do not deny that. I just don’t think that explains the depth of our pain.
Go on.
I call the pain the existential dread—it is as if we are fighting our own nothingness and losing the battle.
I’m trying to make myself into something. I’m going to be a fashion designer.
Like I said, the battle is already lost.
But how can you say that?
Because when you get there, no matter how successful you may be, you will find only emptiness; the same thing you are fighting now.
Emptiness is the hurt?
