Cakes For the Queen of Heaven, Isis? Helen’s March 14, 2011 Note: My love letter of concern to all my Japanese IALRW, International Association of Liberal Religious Women, sisters:
A teapot holding tea leaves becomes active with strong essence when the water is added. I see you “in hot water” and being strong in this time of tragedy. Today, it’s so hard to know what the escape of radiation from your quake-damaged nuclear plants really will mean for human health. However what I have witnessed about all of you is the steadfastness of your supportive interdependence and industrious positive energy. I’m sure that “when in hot water” from the earthquake, each one of you is becoming strong enough “to take it” and give what you can to your people’s struggle. This vision I carry inspires me to send, daily, my positive vibrations of concerned love. May you be safe and able to be resilient every step of the way to recovery. History proves you’ve done it before. I hold you in my heart, dear sisters.

Egypt’s weaponless January liberation protest connects to WW II’s A-bomb devastation in Japan.
By Helen Popenoe, (written February 21, 2011, but relevant to Japan’s tragedy, today, in its connection to Michiko Tsuchihashi’s mission, described in this report.)
February Article Introduction (followed by early March responses):
If Jeremiah could have looked at Egypt this beginning of 2011, how would he have interpreted the motivation behind the protestors’ movement? Might they have baked cakes for the Queen of Heaven in their pre-protest communication? In WOMUUNWEB’S fall issue, I started a series based on my reactions to presentations I heard at September’s conference for the International Association of Liberal Religious Women (IALRW.) Now, my second report is an opinion piece about Egypt’s strong protest, one minus the violence of warring with weapons. The weaponless Egyptian January freedom demonstrators’ success ties in with IALRW’s Michiko Tsuchihashi’s unforgettable sharing of her mission in life.
WOMUUNWEB’s last issue’s report was based on a description of Dolma’s peace education. Michiko, in her presentation, acknowledged how Dolma’s good work in India connects with Michiko’s peace work in Japan.
2010 Centennial (100th) Celebration of IALRW Being Women in Action
I begin with two quotes from a Sunday Star, July 15, 1962, article I saved. Its title is “On Living in the Shadow of Atomic War” by Saul Pett. “Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas points out that the Chinese word for crisis is made up of two characters, one meaning danger; the other, opportunity.” President Obama said that out of opportunity comes hope when referring to the Egyptian protests right after President Mubarak stepped down. Later on TV, President Obama toned down what he meant by hope for Egypt with his reminder that Indonesia’s history tells us that it has taken them twenty years to reach their present modernity.
My second quote from the 1962 article comes from Robert Oppenheimer, who facilitated the atomic age into being. “We live with an expansion of knowledge overpoweringly beautiful, vast, ramified, quite unparalleled in the history of man. We live with a yearly enrichment of our understanding of nature, and of man as part of nature, that doubles every decade…” But he added, “We have so largely lost our ability to talk with one another. …We hunger for nobility: the rare words and acts that harmonize simplicity and truth.”
To me, that simplicity lies ingrained in our unconscious memories from the early agrarian days when humans lived in peace through egalitarian, communicative interdependence. That simplicity led to joint action for the betterment of all beneficent life. The UU Women and Religion curriculum, Cakes for the Queen of Heaven has convinced me that this way of living from thousands of years ago still is held in humans’ unconscious minds today. That interdependence must have been centered on “respecting each person’s life”, as Michiko put it in her IALRW presentation.
The real connection that is coming out of modern social networking technology, can spark embodiments of positive, creative energy to deal with the realities of natural and political troubles. Carol Lee Flinders in the Cakes… resource, Rebalancing the World, says, “The energy that can rise in real connection is the stuff of revolution.”
I see many of today's protestors seeking liberation to live according to their inner felt truth, learned by humans in the ancient era of partnership and peace. Carol Flinders named those ways, the Belonging Values. David Korten called them, Earth Community values in The Great Turning, another Cakes… resource. Also, in my preparation to become a Cakes… facilitator, I learned that Egypt had a Golden Age of harmonious peace from 1990 up to 1786, BCE (Before the Common Era.) Could the Egyptian protestors in Cairo’s “Liberation Square”, also, have that ingrained, unconscious memory (meme) to give them additional power to act on their behalf? David Korten spoke of this kind of living together as one of “mutual empowerment”, supported by the “regenerative power of the Spirit.”
Partnership Ways – Yes! Violence – No!
On December 22, 2010, another hope came to those of us “who believe in the importance of a verifiable nuclear arms control agreement between the world’s two largest nuclear superpowers.” This happened by way of the U.S. Senate’s ratification of the New START, the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty. This treaty between Russia and the United States “will help to prevent the global spread of nuclear weapons.” (The two quotes are from the United Nations Association of the USA email announcement I received from unahq@usa.org.)
Michiko told us IALRW’ers that she works for a “war-free”, nuclear-free world” as a path for “achieving lasting world peace.” In this exciting, but confusing world that surrounds us Earthlings, the thoughts Michiko expressed at IALRW’s September conference gave clarity of purpose. She included her family’s grim story of when the A-bomb hit Hiroshima 65 years ago. She ended with a positive thrust I am inspired to follow. Here is a translation of those segments:
“At the time of the bombing, my family lived in Kure City, next to Hiroshima City. I was three years old at that time and was in Kure, so I was not exposed to the A-bombing. However, my mother and one-year-old sister were at my mother’s parents’ home in Hiroshima, so they experienced the bombing.
“Mother and younger sister were exposed to the A-bombing 5 kilometers from the hypocenter, and trapped by our house smashed by the blast. However, they miraculously survived. When Mother managed to get out of the collapsed house, she saw so many people escaping from the city, with their clothing all burnt, their skin peeling and black red, inflamed, the sight of which were so horrible to see.
“While fleeing, she saw many dead bodies everywhere. Many people with faces burnt and clothing ragged, were crying, ‘Mother, Mother.’
“However, she could not do anything. She also escaped over dead bodies, although she tried to avoid them. There were tremendous corpses in rivers. They might have jumped into those rivers, trying to get water.
Father entered Hiroshima City right after the bombing, looking for Mother, so he became a secondary A-bomb victim, and got out of shape due to the radiation infection.
Several years later, Mother got ill with the swollen thyroid gland, which resulted from the aftereffects of the A-bombing, and this condition continued for a long time.
For a long time, Mother did not talk about her A-bombing experiences which is overwhelming our imaginations. She said that when she tried to recall the day and her experiences on the day, she was filled with too much sorrow, and became unable to talk. However, in her old age, she finally could overcome these feelings and left her testimony.
At the end of her testimony, she concluded by saying, ‘I wish that no more wars will happen, so that our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren will be able to survive in the 21 century.”
Michiko, with her doctorate, holds the position of Chief Managing Director of the NPO Corporation’s The Hiroshima Religious Co-operation and Peace Center in Hiroshima. This is her means of communication, as she says, “to practice and act for the real world peace that will prevail from each person’s heart. …As the lives of [those in my] family, including me, are very precious, so all the people’s lives are equal and precious. Today, the dignity of life which is the most important is being lost. One of the reasons of this loss comes from wars or conflicts made by human beings’ ego. In wars, people kill each other and lose precious lives, and this leaves only hatred and resentment behind.”
In response to her mother’s testimony, Michiko vows, “Keeping her deep prayer as an important message to the future, in my mind, I thought that to thank for my present life, to try my best in every moment, which changes minute by minute, and to live for each person’s peaceful mind and the world peace are my mission.
“We, as persons of religion, would like to cherish lives and pursue the world free from conflicts and a world of ‘forgiveness and reconciliation’ instead of retaliation. In the Buddhist sutra, ‘hokkukyo (Dhammapada)’, there is Shakyamuni Buddha’s saying, ‘It is indeed true that resentment can never be solved by resentment. Resentment will disappear only by being without resentment.’ These words are the words that we should keep in the minds of us who live in this day and age.”
Michiko’s belief “that human dignity means preciousness of life” brings me to her description of the Memorial Monument for Hiroshima, City of Peace. “It contains a stone chest housing a register of those known to have died of exposure to the A-bombing. The front of the stone coffin is the inscription which reads, ‘Let all the souls rest in peace; for we shall not repeat the evil.’ …”This pledge to transcend hatred and resentment of the horror and misery caused by the A-bombing, resonates in our minds deeply.”
The power to take life doesn’t count as much as the once prevalent partnership ways for enhancing the life of our human species. Michiko’s inspiring words give me the hope that the realization of lasting peace can grow if our starting point is respect for the preciousness and dignity of human life.
Afterthought about a childhood experience of mine:
When I was eleven years old and a regular Sunday school attendee at Washington, D.C.’s All Souls Church, Unitarian, I must have participated in sending a gift of school supplies to Hiroshima’s children who survived the A-bomb. Before meeting Michiko at the IALRW centennial, Sugarloaf, my present congregation, had an April Sunday service for honoring the Hiroshima children’s 1948 drawings. What they depicted had such bright colors, happy subjects and hope. They had been sent to us Sunday schoolers as a thank you for our gift and, since then, preserved in the All Souls’ archives. Michiko knows about that exchange and remembers with gratitude our creating a child to child bridge of support. Maybe, deep down, I, still, know in my heart the sad feeling of empathy and, in my mind, retained longtime unconscious awareness of the dreadful meaning of the U.S. dropping Hiroshima’s A-bomb, 65 years ago. I believe in the power of such memes to give present-day guidance.
"Cakes..." Author Responds Rev. Shirley Ranck
Yes! Distinguished scholars tell us we humans may have an ancient heritage of partnership and peace. My hope is that the current uprisings mean that people everywhere are beginning the process of reclaiming that heritage. Surely we have all had enough of domination and war. -- Shirley Ranck, author Cakes for the Queen of Heaven
Response to Cakes for the Queen of Heaven, Isis Rev. Dorothy Emerson
Making connections is so important. Women weaving the web of life remind us to connect the difficult past with present struggles and give birth to hope in a more peaceful and just future.
Back in the early 1980s, I remember questioning the traditional mythology presented at my son’s Waldorf school, mythology that told of war as inevitable. Weren’t there any powerful, responsible women who might come up with better solutions to conflict, if they weren’t depicted as eternally weak and shallow? Where were the stories of wise women and men making peace, protecting the web of relationships and life? I was just beginning to learn about goddesses and alternative gender relationships in very early times, so I knew there was more to the story. Maybe changing the belief that war would always exist needed to precede the end of war.
At the 1983 UU Women’s Federation meeting at the Vancouver General Assembly (my first GA), I learned about the curriculum being developed, “Cakes for the Queen of Heaven.” How great to be in a faith tradition that would not only consider but embrace this brilliant new perspective of women’s religious past and how it can inform our lives in the present! When the curriculum came out the following year, I became one of its avid facilitators.
Right after GA I went to the Women’s Encampment for a Future of Peace and Justice, near the Seneca Army Depot in upstate New York. There I learned about war and patriarchy and about women’s culture as an alternative to war. It wasn’t perfect, of course, but we did manage to operate by consensus, confront racism and classism, and learn to listen carefully to opposing viewpoints to find common ground.
It was at the peace camp that I met many women of faith who renewed in me a long ago call to ministry. I also met hibakusha, survivors of the atomic bombs, and saw pictures the US government took to document the effects of radiation. Shocked to my soul at the depth of the evil perpetrated by my own country, I decided to pursue ministry as a way to put my life energy on the side of justice and peace.
So making these connections is very important to me. I too am inspired by the revolution in Egypt, as I was with the dismantling of the Berlin Wall. One of my enduring memories is of being at IALRW in 1990 and meeting one of the ministers who participated in that peaceful revolution. Later she invited me to visit her home in the former East Germany. I was one of the first American visitors and was welcomed with open arms. Sitting in the church where the revolutionary conversations took place, I was filled with the spirit of hope that any of us could participate in creating a future of justice and peace.
I still cherish that hope. The more of us who share a commitment to peace, the greater likelihood there is that peace will be possible. May it be so.

Merlin Stone 1931-2011 Gretchen Ohmann
 
"Merlin Stone is dead. She died on the 23rd of February, 4:52 a.m., in Daytona beach. She was ill for three years with much pain. . Thanks for the books Merlin,”When God was a Woman” and “Ancient Mirrors of Womanhood.” You changed my life for the better." - Z Budapest.
Stone was a sculptor and professor of art history at the State University of New York at Buffalo. Her 1976 book “When God Was a Woman” is often credited with being responsible for one of the major contributors to the rise in Goddess spirituality and feminist thought during the 1980s.
Mama Donna Henes writes, "I met Merlin in 1975 when we worked together on the Great Goddess issue of Heresies: A Feminist Publication on Art and Politics. Since then, she has been a friend, mentor, supporter and role model for me. She was especially helpful when The Queen of My Self was first released, generously sharing her experience, expertise and encouragement. She will be sorely missed... Merlin, dear, rest in in peace, embraced by the arms of the Goddess."
Zsuzsanna Budapest has asked UUW&R to pass along the details of her memorial service: It will be held on September 24, 2011 at the UU Church in Clearwater, FL. She adds, "We are still in the process of organizing for the event, but you can share the www.MerlinStone.net website with everyone so they can monitor the events and projects happening."
Rev. Shirley Ranck, author of Cakes for the Queen of Heaven comments, "For me, Merlin Stone's book When God Was a Woman was one of the first to alert me to the reality that there had been a massive shift in power in the myths and societies of the ancient world. The title alone was a shock to many people. I remember mentioning it to some sociologists of religion at a meeting and the whole idea was dismissed as nonsense. It must have taken a lot of courage to write and publish that book at that time. We owe Merlin Stone a debt of gratitude for her work."
Helen Popenoe adds, "What a fountain of knowledge Merlin Stone’s work is! Her Ancient Mirrors of Womanhood serves me well as a resource for moon circles, Wheel of the Year services and Cakes… circles besides simply my own inspiration. I like her phrase, 'the Oneness that lies beneath all dualities.'"
Magic is Afoot for General Assembly 2011 Gretchen Ohmann

Shirin Neshat, Iranian Film Director Misty Sheehan
Islamic women are powerful ladies drawing on powerful mythological sources. My favorite is Shirin Neshat (1957-), from Iran. I just watched a film directed by her, Women without Men, which is available through Netflix. The surrealistic film is based on a surrealistic novella by Shahrnush Parsipur (translation available from Syracuse University Press, 1998)
Neshat’s story is about four women living in 1953 when a coup ousted the President Mohammed Mosaddeq in favor of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi. (In case you haven’t heard of Mosaddeq, and I had to look him up, he was an elected leader in Iran, who the CIA and the British intelligence deposed, putting in the Shah of Iran with his repressive reign. And that is only one of the reasons the people in the Middle East are angry at the U.S. and Britain.)
One woman is a communist; one is a prostitute; one an older women who had been a singer, but her husband didn’t allow her to sing; and the last is a woman who is concerned about the importance of virginity.
Farrok, the older woman, leaves her husband and buys a house with a garden. In Islam, heaven is perceived as a garden so in a sense she creates a heaven for women to which the other three women come. The surrealistic scenes of the garden are eerie and breathtaking. It is both a political film, representing anger against the U.S. and Britain, and a mythological film, delving into the depths of women’s souls as they attempt to actualize themselves withn this sacred space.
Shirin Neshat's art is disturbing as it focuses on conflicting issues in the reader's mind regarding politics and Islam." Shirin Neshat has been famous in the West for a number of years for her photography and art films. In her photographs she juxtaposes the words of the Qur'an with guns. One of my favorites, "Faceless", shows a young women with Qur'anic calligraphy painted on her face and arms, with a chador on, pointing a gun at the camera. One sees the woman’s gracious face, the malignant gun, the covering chador, then under the chador the words of the Qur'an which illuminate Islam. Is it positive or negative? One doesn’t know, but it is disturbing, both as a statement on violence and a statement on women’s rights.
Her first art film, Turbulent, also juxtaposes two images one on each side of the gallery. On one side, a male singer, singing a love song by Rumi to a large audience, is contrasted with, on the other side, a female singer, singing her own composition to an empty set of seats.
In all her work, she digs at the roots of cultural perceptions on women and women’s perceptions of themselves. Her work is as groundbreaking as that of Judy Chicago and Cindy Sherman, going beyond the symbols those artists played with, to the inner mythological working of women’s mind.

P. G. Misty Sheehan has been a UU for 35 years and has worked on Women and Religion since 1979. She teaches philosphy and religion at Northwestern Michigan College, including a course on Women's Spirituallity.
No Silent Witness Gretchen Ohmann
No Silent Witness: The Eliot Parsonage Women and Their Unitarian World (Oxford University Press, 2010)
Dr. Cynthia Grant-Tucker's 2010 biography, "No Silent Witness," follows three generations of ministers’ daughters, mothers, and wives in one of America’s most influential Unitarian dynasties: the family of Abby Adams Cranch and William Greenleaf Eliot. Shifting the center of gravity from pulpits to parsonages, and from confident sermons to whispered doubts, it humanizes the Eliot saints, demystifies their liberal religion, and lifts up a largely unsung female vocation.
Spanning 150 years from the early 19th century forward, the narrative probes the women’s defining experiences: the deaths of numerous children, the anguish of infertility, persistent financial worries, and the juggling of the often competing demands that parishes make on first ladies.
Here, too, we see the matriarch’s granddaughters scripting larger lives as they skirt traditional marriage and women’s usual roles in the church. They follow their hearts into same-sex unions and blaze new trails as they carve out careers in public health service and preschool education.
These stories are linked by the women’s continuing battles to speak and make themselves heard over the thundering clerical wisdom that contradicts their reality.
I found the book to be a fascinating read, mostly because Dr. Tucker's narrative of these women's lives quickly pulled me in to "see" for myself what they had gone through. Especially in a world where our foremothers' stories remain largely untold, the female perspective on history really brings new light to the past. Unitarian-Univeraliststs have our revered historical figures of the 19th century, but No Silent Witness gives a rounded-out view of their lives and times.
Her research into each woman is thorough. Genealogical charts and a family roster are provided to give the reader more solid information to bring all the stories into a whole. She makes every effort to show the struggles of each woman in attempting to keep in her life some kind of balance between her own needs and those of others. Their varying level of success speaks to us in a very personal way, as Tucker delves into their personal qualities, hopes, dreams and emotions.
Author of the acclaimed Prophetic Sisterhood, Tucker also offers an online Discussion Kit for groups, www.nosilentwitness.org.
Florida NE Cluster Women's Retreat Allie Gore

“Great planning and presentation! Wonderful inclusion of participants! Collage activity was a delightful journey along the path of individual creativity and self-expression.” What a wonderful experience.” “Great weekend.” “This has been an enriching experience.” “Time to reflect,time to share, time to be joyous and time to be creative.

SW UU Women's Conference
SouthWest UU Women held their 25th annual Conference, "Generation NEXXT" in Dallas Texas on March 3-5. Despite their keynote speaker having to cancel at the last minute due to family illness, the SWUUW women were up to the challenge. Participants commented:
"Big Bad Gina ROCKED! It was so fun to dance to their music, and just be entertained by them!"
"I thought Intern Rev. Megan [Dalby-Jones] did a very good job of delivering the message that Rev. Tambra Lebak was to have given."
"The keynote really sparked conversation in the morning workshop. Although it was a bit tough being the sole representative of my generation."
"I like the [workshop] variety -- from Yoga or Zumba (movement) to more intellectual offerings and everything in between."
"Loved dancing with my sisters. Sisterhood is good and fun!" Planning has begun for the 2012 event, to be held in Houston. www.swuuw.org.
Birthright: The Third Wave Sarah Oglesby-Dunegan
While at the [SWUUW] conference this year, I wrote a tribute poem to the women of SWUUW in particular. From the third wave of feminists to you all...thanks.
Birthright: The Third Wave
She changes everything she touches The women in my life have been a sacred circle; They are weavers of a web of history and love, Committed to change, committed to justice, committed to the journey. (We are sisters, on a journey, singing out as one)
Their threads have led me to books and music and protests. Their threads have held me suspended and safe, saved me from An abyss of self loathing. Their threads have mended me when I was frayed and Pieced together disparate cloths, fabric from the different pieces Of my soul.
Their voices sing for freedom. Their bodies and minds have met injustice and suffering. Their bodies and minds have delivered miracles, The soft flesh of newborn Ideas.
They have given me a labyrinth for contemplation And songs to sing outside the capitol Or the detention center Or in my classroom Or in my daughter’s room, at night as she sleeps. They have given me the bright colors of patchwork quilts and hippie skirts and I wear them in my hair and on my toes and emblazoned in tattoos.
They have given me gardening tools and seeds, And a little plot of ground to green And I call this place Mine Although I will gladly share the harvest After the seeds have become vegetables and fruits and flowers. There is a basket for each visitor—you can fill one if you like. Just plant some seeds yourself, There’s plenty more space In this community garden. We can share the compost pile, it is rich and full and warm. (Heyanna hoyanna heyanna ho)
We are struggling, each of us in our own place on the path To the center. Some of them are waiting for me now, Already there, And I can hear their voices, softly: (And everything she touches changes.)
--Sarah Oglesby-Dunegan
