Healing Fragmentation by Holding the Tension of Opposites
In 2022, EHoP will be offering reflections and connections to teachings to support the practice of holding the tension of opposites in order to facilitate the experience of wholeness.
Six pairs of opposites that make up six wholes will be discussed and held throughout the year: GOD & WORLD, OLD & NEW, LIGHT & DARK, IN & OUT, FULL & EMPTY, and EXTERIOR & INTERIOR.
Central to this practice is to recognize our tendency to split the field and choose one opposite to embrace while disowning the other — especially when we feel threatened and desire a sense of control and security. This splitting results in behaviors that often cause violence to ourselves and others, and is evidenced in our often divisive and contentious social media landscape.
Through our commitment to this practice in 2022, we hope to engage our growing community in movement from alienation from Source to participation in the Whole — merging with the larger field of Love that is the Body of Christ.
