Eghersis
is a transliteration of the Greek word, εγερσις, which has the meaning of being roused to life. Thus, it is my hope that what you find on this blog will empower, arouse, stimulate, excite, and animate your life--your soul, your spirit--the wholeness of who you are.

Quote from Hadewijch of Antwerp




"Now understand the deepest essence of your soul, what 'soul' is.
Soul is a being that can be beheld by God and by which, again, God can be beheld."

Hadewijch of Antwerp
