The Beloved’s Light of the
Shekinah
The beloved is a spiritual and mystical
pathway to God. In the creative story of
the mystical Kabbalah, it says that God
took His beloved and brought Her to
Earth. He put Her on the Earth to be the
light of physical existence. To hold the
eternal light that creates all of life. It is She
who makes everything live. The trees, the
flowers, the air and water. All of nature is
from the generosity of God’s Beloved, you
could say she is Mother Earth. The story
continues because God’s beloved was so
beautiful and because He cherished his
beloved so much, he gave us his beloved
so that we could live. This is the Shekinah
– our divine, indwelling light. It is said that
God is always longing for his beloved
Shekinah. Thus every Sabbath he
descends to Earth to retrieve Her, the
Shekinah, to ascend to heaven with Him,
to return to his sacred bedroom where
they will unite in bliss. The Shekinah is
always longing for her Beloved God’s
return. Within every human, the Shekinah
Presence which is our Soul, is longing to
return home and merge in union with the
Soul’s Beloved Creator. We are all carrying
the story within us. And when we do find
that kind of love here on Earth, it is
Romantic, wonderful, rejuvenating and
peaceful. This story is within the
archetypes of our consciousness. This
story is the journey of our heart. Each of
us can create the special place for our
beloved to enter. First, it’s very important
to invite divine romance into your life.
There is a romance, a wooing between
God and Shekinah, His beloved. This
courting is romantic as romance softens
the heart and puts the ego to rest. Divine
romance creates a sacred frequency, the
energy of love necessary for the Beloved
and the Beloved. To do this, it is very
simple.
The Four Steps to Creating a
Divine Romance
[
Turn off the world, the phone, the
television, and create a sacred
chrysalis for you and your beloved
to find each other’s Soul.
In a new relationship,
there are things that you
can do to help foster the
experience of your
beloved.
[
[
[
Take this special time with your
beloved where you bring all of your
attention into one another. Look
into each other’s eyes deeply. Take
each other’s left hand and place it
on one another’s heart. Hold each
other’s heart and breathe together
slowly and gently until the inhale
and exhale of your breath become
one. Stay with this as long as you can.
After your breath has united, begin
to stroke each other’s face. Use the
back of your hand and the palm of
your hand to explore each other’s
face. Study the curves of your
Beloved’s face. The face is
extraordinarily sensitive. See if you
can see the face beneath the
physical face, your Beloved’s Soul
face longing to open.
As you embrace, fall even deeper
into each other as if gravity is pulling
the two of you together. Now share
with each other what you love
about each other, what you are
grateful for in the other and finish
by saying, “I see you, I love You.”
Experience a Return to the
Bliss of Love
meditation practice of yoking to the light
you have just opened up The Invitation
to the Soul of Your Beloved. And this
Presence will make itself known in the
bliss you will be experiencing.
And this is true satisfaction in love
where wholeness and completion
resides in our soul. The ego’s form of
relationship love is not the same kind of
love as this love. Ego’s love cannot
quench the thirst of your soul’s deep
need to be loved. And you deserve to
know love. These steps even work alone
in your meditation practice. Simply put
God’s Presence in front of you.
She/He will show up. I promise. You will
experience the intimacy of union with
the divine.
And what if you don’t have a partner
and you desire one? Your loving partner
is coming. Believe and know this. God
created someone for everyone!
