Moreno a kabbalist?

[Edward Schreiber]

I've heard some psychodramatists call Dr. Moreno strange things, like  
crazy, with regard to his existential recording of Words of the Father.
I know when I read his work I find a political position, a spiritual  
instrument, a theological structure, a therapeutic process, a way of  
living all
rooted in existential traditions made available without the trappings  
of religion, yet offering an existential experience of the Godhead,  
or whatever we want to call life unbounded.  In my spiritual  
tradition, Classical Zen, it is called our original nature.  The  
Canon of Creativity as I see it is a diagram for transformation of  
the self, organizations and the society.  His brilliance is without a  
second in my view, and I am totally biased - based upon my study and  
direct experience.

My relationship with his wife, his primary disciple, just like  
hundreds or thousands around the world, has offered a first hand  
account of the intent, power, dimension, vision of Moreno's work, as  
a vehicle for the transformation of human society.  He was a genius,  
we all know that and like many in his class, must have seemed nuts to  
the rest of the world concerned with sustaining the cultural  
conserves of his time and of our time.  Let's face it, the conserve  
of human civilization is destroying the planet.  One reference:  TIME  
MAGAZINE with Putin as Person of the Year, you can see the interview  
with Al Gore about the reality of the collapse of the natural  
environment.  I know I keep harping, like a German pointing to the  
coming Nazi regime, but what else can we do but tell the truth as we  
see it?  Moreno's legacy and his instruments of of vital importance,  
if we can wrestle them out of the conserves of the therapy office and  
bring them more fully to the world, possibly helping us as we see the  
ice caps melting before our eyes, yet hoping it is not so, hoping  
that there will be someone to fix it.  We are Moreneans, and for me  
that means a spiritual legacy of sociatric and personal change.  I  
recall a conversation I had with a friend of Joanna Macy, in which  
she told me of Joanna's use of role reversal to help us to know the  
state of the world.  We need a plenary of sorts I feel - some way to  
talk about all this in person.

Cheers to 2008~!
