About this listen
Author Matthew Fox has stated, "If Hildegard had been a man, she would be well known as one of the greatest artists and intellectuals the world has ever seen." It is a credit to the power of the women's movement and our times that this towering genius of Western thought is being rediscovered in her full grandeur and autonomy.
Meister Eckhart’s deeply ecumenical teachings were in many ways modern. He taught about what we call ecology, championed artistic creativity, and advocated for social, economic, and gender justice.

Story
Passionate and provocative, Fox uncovers the ancient tradition of a creation-centered spirituality that melds Christian mysticism with the contemporary struggle for social justice, feminism, and environmentalism. Showing how we can learn from each other, Fox's spirituality weds the healing and liberation found in both North and South America. Creation Spirituality challenges listeners of every religious and political persuasion to unite in a new vision through which we learn to honor the Earth and the people who inhabit it as the gift of a good and just creator.

Story
What do we mean by “God” in today’s world? Do we even need “God” anymore? How many names for divinity are there? Do the names for God change as we mature as individuals, evolve as a species, and face a critical “turning time” in human and planetary history? Too often, notions of God have been used as a means to control and to promote a narrow worldview.

The mysteries of the Black Madonna can be traced to pre-Christian times, to the ancient devotion to Isis, the Earth Goddess, and the African Mother, to the era when God was not only female but also black.

Sharing her more than 35 years of research and fieldwork at sacred sites, Belloni takes you on a mystical pilgrimage of empowerment, initiation, and transformation.

We live in difficult times. Life so often seems like a turbulent river threatening to drown us and destroy our world. Why, then, shouldn’t we cling to the certainty of the comfortable - to our deep-seated habits and familiar ways? Because, Pema Chödrön teaches, that kind of fear-based clinging keeps us from the infinitely more powerful experience of being fully alive.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Just before Christmas in 1843, a debt-ridden and dispirited Charles Dickens wrote a small book he hoped would keep his creditors at bay. His publisher turned it down, so Dickens used what little money he had to put out A Christmas Carol himself. He worried it might be the end of his career as a novelist. The book immediately caused a sensation. And it breathed new life into a holiday that had fallen into disfavor, undermined by lingering Puritanism and the cold modernity of the Industrial Revolution.

What do we mean by “God” in today’s world? Do we even need “God” anymore? How many names for divinity are there? Do the names for God change as we mature as individuals, evolve as a species, and face a critical “turning time” in human and planetary history? Too often, notions of God have been used as a means to control and to promote a narrow worldview.

A lecture and Q and A
I picked this up as part of a 2 for 1 sale at audible. When I picked it up there was not any reviews. I assumed it was a lecture but did not know anything about it other than the description. I don’t think the description is accurate to the content. The description suggests that it is about Hildegard and Echart. I read a historical fiction book about Hildegard earlier this year and I read about Eckhart in seminary. I would like to learn more about both.
The opening comments of the lecture suggest that it is primarily going to be about the environment, but I do not think that the intro was any more accurate than the Audible description. I do not think I have read anything by Matthew Fox previously. In that introduction, he talks about coming from Ireland and being with youth and the problem of youth hopelessness. He suggests that youth unemployment in Ireland was 90%. I have to assume that what he meant was that youth unemployment in the particular area, not the country, was high. There is not a date on the lecture, but it was published to Audible in 2021. In 2012, Irish youth unemployment was at a historic high of almost 31%, but it is about 10% now. I think this was likely recorded in the late 1980s or early 1990s from other context clues, particularly speaking about the Chornobyl disaster as recent.
And then, soon after that Irish youth claim, he casually suggests that Thomas Merton was assassinated by the CIA, a claim I have never heard. When I googled, I found an article on the CIA’s website and a short article where Matthew Fox says that a CIA agent confessed to him that Merton had been assassinated by the CIA. There is a full-length book that argues that Merton was assassinated. After a casually asserted conspiracy theory, a likely unclear and inaccurate statement of statistics, and a statement in the introduction that was very different from the description of the audiobook, I seriously considered returning the audiobook and listening to something else. But the lecture was short, and I haven’t finished a book recently, so I decided to muscle through.
The main lecture lasted a bit over an hour. Following the lecture was a question-and-answer period. When Fox is speaking, the sound is fine. But the question-and-answer period has very uneven sound, and I am tempted to suggest that if you do listen, you may want to stop when the Q-and-A starts.
I have a hard time recommending this to most people. It is not very focused. Fox is a mystic and studies mysticism. Mystics are notorious for not being very concerned with orthodoxy. I think that Fox is a real Christian, but he is not particularly interested in sounding like an orthodox Christian.
One of the main points is that he wants to recover the Cosmic Christ, a concept that is a more robust imago dei. You can get a sense of what he is arguing for in the description of his book about the Cosmic Christ. I do think that Christians need to recover the importance of the imago dei for a variety of reasons. I think Nicholas Wolterstorff has a very helpful book about the relationship of justice and love that is really centered on a recovery of the imago dei. I don’t have any issues with the Cosmic Christ, and I think that both imago dei and mysticism are very important going forward, But had I read the description of cosmic Christ, I would have skipped this because, despite his critique of modern liberal Protestantism, I think it mostly sounds like modern liberal Protestantism.
A couple of helpful points made me glad I listened to it.
First, I think he was right early in the lecture that many movements today are trying to fill the holes that Christian mysticism would better fit. He strongly suggests that fundamentalism is a type of false mysticism that distorts mysticism by combining certainty and political ideology. When he talks about mysticism, I think he is describing something like Durkheim’s understanding of religion.
I also think that he is right that some of the psychological and emotional work into recovering childlikeness (not childishness) is helpful in recovering healthy mysticism. That is part of the argument in Lacy Flynn Borgo’s book Faith Like a Child.
Fox also cites Kuhn’s ideas about Paradigm Shifts, which I heard a lot about in the late 1990s. He quotes Kuhn as saying that things that were small aspects in a previous paradigm will become central in a new paradigm. Fox is suggesting that mysticism and wisdom literature will become central to the future postmodern world.
There really was very little about Hildegard or Echart that I found helpful. One image from Hildegard that I like is that she suggests sunlight’s rays are all part of the sun but a part that touches us. Fox says that she uses this illustration to model how she thought that we are all made in the image of God and therefore god-like in a similar way. This is not a denial of original sin but a recovery of an older idea of what imago dei is doing in us.
Again, I do not really recommend this. The main lecture was just over an hour. The question and answer portion could be skipped. If I had not purchased in a 2 for 1 sale, I would have probably returned it. It certainly wasn’t worth a credit.
