@CACRadicalGrace “We stand at the point...of entering more fully into our human garment, and of raising everything into a clearer more unified belonging.” - Ronald Beesley

Only superficially, then, does ‘home-making’ refer to refining our external attachment to people, place and things, and the broad array of technes supporting the outer forms of settling in. Ultimately, homemaking amounts to accepting a profound invitation to explore the most vital coherence of our senses and thoughts in congruence with the embrace of Nature, striving for a depth where the form of our emerging growth is brought into rhythm with the concealed order of creation. It is, in other words, an invitation to friendship with our own essential nature. Such is the ground of primal affection mediated by Beauty. “The experience of the beautiful,” as Hans-Georg Gadamer describes it, “is the invocation of a potentially whole and holy order of things.”

Quoted by@AimeTim 4/ Yes, root and branch are in conjoined interplay in a single helix of presence. So then, if Creation and Incarnation ultimately exist as a dynamic Intelligence, how might a corporeal matrix of encounter and experience resurrect our world and us, in the same place and breath?Quoted byRT @nick_routledge: @noonessleep Simply put? Every resurrection requires a home address. Indeed, we only come home to concrete reality in so far as we and the world complete one another - the simultaneity of de Chardin's spiritualization of the material and materialization of the spiritual.
