It really is both delightful & moving to read all the entries and feel the underpinning of the sacred in every one. I have had an ‘official’ shrine for abt 20 years but only recognized how I had created others in our home when you Susan, spoke about creating three more! I just never recognized them as such. ie in my work space is a bureau top with Kali, Kuan Yin, a big piece of blue calcite & flowers or plants that I change up
I am very drawn to stones & crystals so both in the LR & BR, there are crystals or rocks I gathered to rest one’s eyes on. I find they draw/instill inner silence.
I love the whimsy of your ‘cardinal’ doll, Gopigal, & Celeste, you reminded me of how meaningful pine ones are for me too so I’m placing one on my altar.
Thank you everyone 🙏Hello Susan et All
My name is Suzanne Pretten. I live in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
I am grateful for my health (78 & no meds for anything!) and that I am surrounded by loving family and friends.
I want to give more time to my practice and just the first class has ignited my spirit. I meditate best in the morning but hoping to establish a consistent evening time as well.
Books I love? Oh my -soo many but currently inspired by On Freedom by Timothy Snyder, On Becoming an Alchemist (your recommendation,Susan) and currently revisiting Daniel Ladinsky’s Love Poems from God.
I read poetry daily and I am very grateful for the insights on lineage as it has broadened my thinking on that topic.
I cannot imagine my life without music.I play piano, poorly, so I mostly listen to recordings, classical, jazz, voice,-eclectic play list!
I am so fortunate to have my striving
supported, uplifted and guided fir these four weeks. Thank you all.
Namaste 🙏🦉
