Soul Motion: Movement Ministry
We live our lives in ever widening circles that reach out across the world, says poet Rainer Maria Rilke. Soul Motion uses conscious dance expression to manifest social justice. Students are invited to bring their practice from the dance floor to the everyday dance of family, co-workers, and neighbors. With enhanced perception and understanding of the one dance we practice, we are empowered to create significance in life.

“You darkness that I come from, I love you more than all the fires that fence in the world. For the fire makes a circle of light that includes some, and not others.

But the darkness pulls in everything: shapes and fires, animals and myself, how easily it gathers them!-
Powers and people-

And it possible a great presence is stirring beside me.

I have faith in nights.”

Every time those words by Rainer Marie Rilke are articulated I receive insightful vision i! nto how not doing and not knowing can add to the body of wisdom and intuitive grace that fills the space of my soul in motion.

It is one of those sweet paradoxes that continue to show up and help me in my daily struggle of making sense of this life I lead and that leads.
I am invited to the place where mystery and question have their own palatial space and the servant that I am is granted amnesty from the tangled web of having to figure things out or place them in neat tidy packages.
It does! not seem to work that way in all situations!

Rilke’s words point me again to the terrain of possibility thinking and the power of miracle-minded manifestation. It reminds me of my common denominator with all things that exist and places me square in the family of things in which I can relax and discover support whenever and wherever I am shaking over the slippery surface that serves as life’s scenery and situation. “I have faith in nights.”

Be well within love…vinn
