MessageI think you are asking an important question.
The Taoist tradition sees the Origin as female, the opening and closing of the (yin-yang) gates of the Tao as "the mysterious female". See verse 6 of the Tao te ching.
I think the challenge is that the primordial, which appears dark to us living in the realms of yin-yang, cannot easily be felt or known, making a mystery of the intent or the qualities of the primordial. Yet I feel that quality is most easily interpreted by us here as unconditional love and acceptance. The primal act of creation is one of love. The Life Force will never abandon us, never put us in a basket and shove us off down a river to a dark corner of the the multii-verse.
soul peace,
michael
