A closer look at the Genesis creation story helps us understand the spoken and unspoken precedents that underlay it. The way it has been interpreted and taught, over the centuries, inevitably leads us into the realm of Mind OVER Matter, where creation does not involve the flesh and blood but is solely a product of thought. In this sense, we are a technology of the gods; how does this show up in our modern birth culture? What does it look like when birth is no longer a process of flesh and blood, the human body erased, the feminine aspect forgotten, and overly controlled and dictated by technology? But things can go too far the other direction, unfortunately, in a Matter OVER Mind culture, where technology is needlessly vilified. This episode is an exploration into the world of Mind AND Matter where these two energies, or parts of the human experience, are balanced.
