The Traduka Wisdom Poetry Series® is a modern mystical poetry collection written by the poet, Wendy E. Slater, to bring healing to each reader in a unique way. The compilation of poetry volumes was created for the purpose of taking the reader on a journey of the soul to inspire, mend, comfort, and ignite one’s own self-discovery, self-realization, and transformation. As of August 2020, there are 3 published volumes in Slater’s poetry series: Into the Hearth, Poems-volume 14 (ISBN:978-1943512003), Of the Flame, Poems-volume 15 (ISBN:978-1943512102), and The Ocher of Abundance, Poems-volume 16 (ISBN:978-1943512201).

Slater’s modern transcendent poetry reflects deeply on both the hidden and revealed relationship of nature, the cosmos, humanity and the healing of archetypes both esoteric and known in the individual and collective psyche. In our fast-paced modern reality, there is a renewed awareness of our oneness with all humanity, nature, and the cosmos. As we remember and re-awaken from the illusory separation of self, love, and Divinity, we must reconcile with self-blame and judgment. When blame and self-judgment are transformed, healed, and cease to be, one has reawakened without the myth, “the mythos,” of separation from Source. One comes to understand that Divinity or “all that is” is within the self. This true self-reunion is a remembering and reawakening that reveals itself with uncomplicated Universal Truths.

The intent of The Traduka Wisdom Poetry Series® is to heal, release, and transmute self-blame and judgement so that self-compassion may re-awaken within. Self-examination does not involve judgment or self-blame; rather it allows one to approach forgiveness and begin to understand that compassion starts with the self. In this process of inner healing, one begins to see that inner compassion emanates out to others with an increasingly less comparative and judgmental stance.

The self, love, and Divinity become progressively evident and commence to come into full union when one releases judgments, labels and comparatives. The spiritual and Divinity are always present – even in the seemingly mundane. When hampering qualities like self-judgment and self-blame are obscured or hidden from the Self’s realization, illusions distort and project out from the ego onto others and one’s life experience.

The Traduka Wisdom Poetry Series® will rekindle the reader’s inner wisdom and point the reader toward a new awareness of our oneness with all humanity, nature, the cosmos and The Divine, or “all that is”. It is one-by-one as we heal and come into unity and oneness that we may then impart compassion together as an increasingly larger unified frequency. It is through self-compassion that we connect to Divinity and then, without effort, may emanate forgiveness and love so that others, too, may remember the union of the self and “all that is”, or the Divine, resides within all.

Audre Lorde, the poet, said, “Poetry is the way we give a name to the nameless so it can be thought.” Lorde’s statement is accurate for poetry gives edges, expression, and delineation to experiences, and this allows and helps the reader to define and be with their own experience that is evoked from the reading of a poem. A poem can unveil a feeling that previously lacked words and depth and open a new lens of perception for the reader.

Poetry enables one to re-experience and, ultimately, re-examine and reintegrate from the reading of a poem. For the reader, poetry essentially creates an intimacy within the self and with the poem, and also, enables one to glimpse into both one’s own life and the poet’s mind. In essence, poetry allows the reader to be an observer while simultaneously being immersed in a poem. Great poetry renders a visual like a painting where one can see all the splashes, colors, layers, and depths as well as the creative whole of the work of art.  Poetry creates a spaciousness in the mind where new thoughts and feelings can form.
