The Mother of 10,000 Things - a podcast by Love Hive Yoga

The energy of mother is so big that it contains both life and death simultaneously. As one thing begins another ends. As one thing ends another begins. What is more personal than living and dying? What is more personal than creating something? What is more personal than being able to hold the tension between life and death in one body? In Mother we have both the archetype of rejection and the archetype of nurture, The mother lives in all of us. It is light and dark, yin and yang simultaneously. The mother holds the key to the eternal challenge of unconditional love because of it's capacity to hold the complexity of both. It is here that we experience directly the very key to liberation. We see this mirrored in nature. The forest is alive and dying together all at once all the time. The sea is alive and dead. The site where a whale dies becomes a prolific source of food and life. It is all entangled and mysterious and real. Even a mountain top gives us the grace of a widened perspective, and yet reminds us how perilous our life is simultaneously.
