Welcome

Primitive religion is not believed, it is danced!

Arthur Darby Nock

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
And only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

Elizabeth Browning

Light will split you open

“Light will someday split you open”
― Hāfez
_____________________________

we walk in the darkness
of fear
hate
and greed

hugging ourselves to ourselves
protective
close

at times aggressive and angry

unable to let love and hope in
closed to those around us
unable to let love and hope out

rigid and cold

but we carry within us
Sacred Presence
The light that came into the world

That light has the power
to break us open

it sometimes hurts to be open up
raw and vulnerable

we can be wounded
disappointed
used and even abused

but when the light shines within  Ah1
when the light shines through – Ah!

darkness is split asunder
