A never-named young woman (Ruan Lingyu) works as a prostitute to support herself and her baby son Shuiping. One night, fleeing from a police street sweep, she hides in the room of a gambler named Zhang (Zhang Zhizhi). When he suggests she stay the night with him for not betraying her to the police, she agrees. Later, however, he and two of his pals show up at her place. He makes it clear that he considers her his property. The woman attempts to flee, but Zhang tracks her down and frightens her by claiming to have sold Shuiping to punish her. Zhang returns the child, but he has made his point; she realizes she cannot protect her son from him and gives in. However, she manages to hide some of her earnings behind a loose brick in her wall.

First off let me say that the males should not assume this has nothing to do with them. You would be mistaken if you assumed that. Genetically speaking, fifty percent of your previous incarnations (lives) have been female. We all have the female energy in us. Not to mention the Mitochondrial DNA which is passed to us all through the female (mother). The Mitochondrial DNA is the energy source for every cell in our body, so therefore it is our internal energy source. The Mitochondrial DNA is also called the "Eve gene." The music/frequencies in this video are very strong and have an immediate affect on the Root Chakra, stimulating the Kundalini, the "Serpent Energy," the Goddess Energy within us all. In my experience with this particular piece of music, I personally felt extremely powerful ...

In this groundbreaking book, Leonard Shlain, author of the bestselling "Art & Physics," proposes that the process of learning alphabetic literacy rewired the human brain, with profound consequences for culture. Making remarkable connections across a wide range of subjects including brain function, anthropology, history, and religion, Shlain argues that literacy reinforced the brain's linear, abstract, predominantly masculine left hemisphere at the expense of the holistic, iconic feminine right one. This shift upset the balance between men and women initiating the disappearance of goddesses, the abhorrence of images, and, in literacy's early stages, the decline of women's political status. Patriarchy and misogyny followed. www.leonardshlain.com A lot of these ideas were explored in a ...
This documentary is a salute to 35,000 years of the goddess-worshipping religions of the ancient past. The film features Merlin Stone, Carol Christ, Luisah Teish and Jean Bolen, all of whom link the loss of goddess-centric societies with today's environmental crisis. This is the first part of a 3-part series that includes The Burning Times and Full Circle. Directed by Donna Read - 1989
I love the beautiful goddess
who lives on the other side of the sea
I often wave to her
in her arms life is good
she told me herself
No I'm on the other side of the sea
but without my goddess next to me
I often waved to her
in her arms life was good
she told me herself
A quiet wind brings her whispering words
come and be happy with me
'Cause she wasn't a real goddess
when I took her in my arms
she lost her immortality
in her arms life was good
she told me herself
A quiet wind brings her whispering words
