Wednesday, June 24, 2009 Before Evil Was, I Am During this episode Teresa Hahn will conclude reading "The Lioness Tale" for our listeners. The book concludes with this triumphant declaration of inner freedom by Lioness: Before Evil was, I Am! We recall that when Moses was called by God to lead his people out of slavery and exile he asked God what name to use when speaking on God's behalf to the people. Moses is told, "Tell them, I AM sent me." At this stage of her extremely difficult journey, the Lioness unites with the Divine I AM and is set free. No longer is she defined by circumstances, by childhood wounds and the hurtful, sometimes evil, actions of others. She is set free from the ignorance of not knowing who she is at the most fundamental ground of her being: one in union with the great I AM in which she lives and moves and has her being. Join us to discover how she arrives at this moment of liberation. You can listen to Parts I and II of our story by going to the May 20th and June 3rd episodes.

The Lioness Tale

By Diane Pendola

The Lioness Tale, inspired by ancient storytelling traditions, addresses the problems of living under conditions that are hostile or indifferent to the inner life. How easy it is to identify with the Lioness of this tale! We know what it is to long for the intimacy of a caring voice, to be embraced by someone who believes that our happiness and our humanness are important.

In this work of visionary fiction, there are lessons that will change your life. Just as the author has dared much in the telling, you must dare much in the reading. You'll share the grief of the Lioness' loss both of love and her own freedom. But the reward you'll share is renewed inner strength and a sense of vulnerability by which you will get back your own life and celebrate it."
