10. The Seeker After Rebirth

Reflections on The Way of The Outsider 

by Monde Mdodana


In Solitude, at length I meditated on the Vision. I saw Somagwaza in conflict with his weaker nature; I saw him trying to liberate him-Self from the tyranny of the instincts. I saw his weaker nature desiring the warmth and oblivion of Woman, that part of him that wants to return to bliss through the Womb door. Associated with these desires is guilt, because it is not the Destiny of Man to return to the Womb. He is like the Initiate who must not look back when his Womb of Rebirth Burns to Ashes; he must run forward into the Future!


His Higher Self would have him inwardly commit matricide and look to The Sun for The Way that he must travel. The guilt can only be resolved when he ceases to dedicate him-Self to the worship of Woman. In order for him to Become whole and in order for the Man in him to be Born, he must not chase after any Woman's Womb, instead he must bring about his own Psychic Rebirth. This is the Paradox of Somawaza, The Seeker After Rebirth; he is pregnant, and must Become Mother, Midwife and Child. He is The First-Born of Creation. If he persists through the Fire, a precious Stone will emerge from the furnace.
