A Missing Piece? What New Age Teachers Can Add To Their Work

What is your practice? Prayer? Meditation? Collective Singing? Chanting?

The people who inspire and advise us often lead to a place of consciousness that feels liberating but all too often represses the awareness of neighbors who need liberation.

The idea is that we should release ancestral trauma to focus on our advantages and successes.

My wife, Diane, recalls when our children were young, in school, that when kids were called upon to discuss their heritage, she guided our son to write that his forbears arrived on these shores in the belly of a ship that crossed the Middle Passage. Some of their peers shared stories of triumph, which usually included fame and prosperity.

Limiting your history to victories bypasses the trauma that needs to be faced and processed for you to be complete.

“If you really change your ways and your actions and deal with each other justly, if you do not oppress the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow and do not shed innocent blood in this place, and if you do not follow other gods to your own harm, then I will let you live in this place, in the land I gave your ancestors for ever and ever. But look, you are trusting in deceptive words that are worthless.

(Jeremiah 7:4-8)
