FW: Moreno a kabbalist?

[thana ag]

Dear Saphira:So wonderful that you revealed your voice!His
sheer presence made me feel that everything was possible,and  his words
helped me dare to be creative. For which i am forever grateful. ,I
recall one exchange: Psyche is outside and inside the body. At that
time,I was thinking,why of course,but why did i not think like
that?!(The hubris of young...)I dare assuming that it was not so
much his influence that made you follow the mystical path, but that 
that  something (it has a name in kabballah:nekuda sh'blev)in you 
resonated with that in   him and continued on its path.. Did you not
mention grace? So much for shutting up...anath-To Anath, Adam, Ed and others, This is the first time I am responding here on grouptalk. I so appreciate this dialogue. In fact, through some questions, dialogue and work with Adam about the transpersonal side of Moreno, I have been very interested for some time in exploring the part of Moreno who is a mystic. I have been writing about the transpersonal aspects of drama therapy, which is our approach to training drama therapists. I have also been a student of Sufism and Jewish Mysticism (Kabbalah) for over 40 years. You said it clearly, Anath, that all Kabbalists are mystics but not all mystics are kabbalists.There is mystery in both and in my experience, one connects with these mysteries through grace as well as consistent meditation practice. What I best remember about Moreno when I was with him was his belief and fervor that all was possible. He absolutely believed that he and everyone were endowed with special powers, and were all part of the one spirit. Personally, he did have a way to make me feel special and I am sure he had an influence on following the mystical path these past many decades since working with him.     I will be continuing this exploration in a presentation at the conference and would welcome any and all of you to join me. I have saved this exchange and would hope to quote some of you in that workshop in Texas.   Thank you for sharing all that you have, Blessings in the new year, Saphira       For more information contact:Omega Theater at 617-522-8300 or email: info at omegatheater.orgOmega Transpersonal Drama Therapy Certificate ProgramOn the web: http://www.omegatheater.org/41 Greenough Ave,Jamaica Plain, MA 02130 (In Boston)Start the year off right.
