“The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize at the centre of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that its centre is really everywhere, it is within each of us.”
Black Elk
This world is as a beggar sitting on the street corner, bowl held out trusting that someone will place a morsel, which will nourish and quench, into it. We pray that each who needs upon and within this Earth as home, will be seen, heard and witnessed. In that charity, placed into that bowl are the offerings of ceremony, ritual, prayer and practice, turning that bowl onto a wellspring and those who hold it healed and held.
“Whether we realize it or not, prayer is the encounter of God’s thirst with ours. God thirsts that we may thirst for him.”
– St. Augustine
Here are such offerings held out, in the hope that others may be inspired to collaborate and share them in their communities, homes and gatherings.
