What if the Temple was the Earth?

What if the Temple was the Earth?

What If?

What if our religion was each other?

If our practice was our life?

If prayer was our words?

What if the Temple was the Earth?

If forests were our church?

If holy water—the rivers, lakes and oceans?

What if meditation was our relationships?

If the Teacher was life?

If wisdom was self-knowledge?

If love was the center of our being

~Ganga White

Being Lost

Violets

“There are ways in,  journeys to the center of life,
through time; through air, matter, dream and thought.

The ways are not always mapped or charted, 
but sometimes being lost, if there is such a thing,
is the sweetest place to be…

And always, in this search, a person might find
that she is already there, at the center of the world.

It may be a broken world,
but it is glorious nonetheless.”

~Linda Hogan, The Woman Who Watches Over the World
