Hello all,
The Gnostic path is not a path of blind certainties. It is a path of constant challenges and deep thought about one's devotion to the path.
I believe it's a mistake not to ask where you are from time to time. The sages called it "wandering the desert."
I've been wandering that desert. Once again the call to politics has sounded for me, only this time much louder. Considering my entire spiritual path up to this point has been spent largely avoiding activism, and political activism is not the best fit for the Gnostic position, I've been learning how to integrate this new, politically-charged world into my path and how to sate both sides of my nature instead of suppressing my political side.
I refuse to mix my spiritual path with my politics, but instead I will find harmony between them. After all, when lives are at stake would it not be better, once I am a priest, to use my position to help others?
I've also been dealing with severe depression from a lost job, a rocky path toward the end of my transition, and the prolonged illness and death of my cat who died at roughly 19 1/2 years of age on Friday.
But I want to warm this account up again. I want to get back on the wagon and share my meditations again. I want to keep what is very likely the furry fandom's only dedicated gnostic enclave from slipping into total irrelevance.
