Dear Terisse,

Thank you for your kindness in sending the "xxx" mandala. The "xxx" had a depth to it I found intriguing. Thanks also for taking the time to write the personal letter and personable information about your work.

I'm glad that the universe "showed up at your door" and made it possible for you to send out your gifts to the people on your list.

I wish you fair winds and good fortune!

I'd like to close by sharing with you a brief excerpt from the epilogue of my book, THE LAWS OF SPIRIT. The woman sage bids me
farewell after an adventure together, with the following words:

"These are my wishes and prayers for you, all the days of your life. May you find grace as you surrender to life. May you find happiness,
as you stop seeking it. May you come to trust these laws and inherit the wisdom of the Earth. May you reconnect with the heart of nature and feel the blessings of Spirit.

"The challenges of daily life will remain, and you will tend to forget what I have shown you," she said. "But a deeper part of you will remember, and when you do, life's problems will seem no more substantial than soap bubbles. The path will open before you where before there grew only weeds of confusion. Your future, and the future of all humanity, is a path into the Light, into a growing realization of the Unity with the Creator and all creation. And what lies beyond is beyond description.

"Even when the sky appears at its darkest, know that the sun shines upon you, that love surrounds you, and that the pure Light within you will guide your way home. So trust the process of your life unfolding, and know with certainty, through the peaks and valleys of
your journey, that your soul rests safe and secure in the arms of Spirit."

God bless and godspeed,

Dan Millman

I was just enthralled by the Eternal Flame piece, it spoke to me and I had to bring it over to the site, even if just for a while.. :-)

May this link bring many wonderful people, from my site, to yours.

In love and light,

Hello,
I found your site through my friend's "Sacred Garden" website. Your artwork is interesting to me and I especially like "Transfusion" in the
Antiquities collection. I'm not sure why it touches me, but it seems to be giving and comforting.

Thank you,
Erica

Very nice

"The old people came literally to love the soil, and they sat or reclined on the ground with a feeling of being close to a mothering power. Their teepees were built upon the earth, and their altars were made of earth. The soil was soothing, strengthening, cleansing and healing. That is why the old Indian still sits upon the earth instead of propping himself up and away from its life giving forces. For him, to sit or lie upon the ground is to be able to think more deeply and to feel more keenly. He can see more clearly into the mysteries of life and come closer in kinship to other lives about him."
