Dear Margaret,
as so often in the past your inspired higher wisdom reminds us that noise is
music out of context and Briah holds Yetzirah just as it can be permitted to
hold us... and for that matter our community and perhaps our world. It all
begins with the simple act of realizing we all belong...all...all and all

Dear Max, Thomas and all colleagues
Happy New Year! I wish you all a peaceful year with many new insights and
observations.
I was there too, in the beautiful little village of Reit im Winkl, where we
had an interesting seminar with the theme: what stays and what goes. Bert
Hellinger worked in the mornings and in the afternoon or evenings we had
other teachers.
Somehow it feels so strange to read these recent messages on CT about the
event, and I realise how thin the line between opinions and observations or
experiences sometimes is. If one thing (like a concert or a remark) is taken
out of the whole context it starts to lead a life of its own. Others easily
walk away with it and use it for their own purpose. This hurts me and I need
to stay very well centred to deal with it and just see: yes this is how it
happens all the time, everywhere. As everywhere in the whole world there is
some quarrelling going on in the world of systemic work and it is just
something personal. But if we take it out of this personal context, (with
which we have nothing to do in the first place) it might start polarising
the situation and then we are in trouble, in conflict and in need of
reconciliation again in the end. Polarising a situation makes it 'hot' and
attractive and magnetic and it starts us thinking and acting in terms of WE
(the good ones) and THEM (the less good ones), and a new battle is born. And
yes, then in the end we can say too: we had a comrade. A comrade is someone
who is in the same battle or war as you are - and it is not a synonym of a
friend!!!
And I wonder, do we, the 'specialists' on conflicts, consciousness and
reconciliation really need to go this path over and over again??? Maybe 2007
will free us somewhat from this eternal circle.
By the way, is somebody already working on the English translation of Der
Grosse Conflict???
With Love and best Wishes
