Re: Why is God the Father more popular than God the Mother?
Frankly I connect neither with the female form nor the male form. Dunno why? Maybe it will take sometime.
Namaste Eriko,
In many respects, this is probably a huge asset, and an ideal state of mind to perceive God. You don't have the divide in the mind that perceives the Divine as being either male or female. That should make it easier for you to grasp then that God is also beyond such other human concepts of joy and sorrow, right and wrong, here and there.
Sometimes I feel like the English language is sorely lacking in a second 3rd person pronoun for the neuter case. I say this in mind with the exception of 3rd person singular, "it". The "it" pronoun seems impersonal to me, and has of course derogatory connotations in semantics.
