Dear friends,It is my invitation for us to breathe in and out forgiveness, to move with and toward love and sing and sound love. We will dance simple circle dances and sing mantras from world spiritual traditions to guide us as we increase the capacity of our heart for love and compassion.
In this time of year, our ancestors from many different lineages come closer and we can hear their message more clearly. Through forgiveness and compassion, we can let go of old baggage and stand up lighter and freely walk on our path. May the Dances assist us in this work and journey.
From Hazrat Inayat Khan on forgiveness:
It is impossible to forgive unless you can forget. What keeps person from forgiving his fellow person is that he holds the fault of another constantly before his view. It is just like sticking a little thorn in one's own heart and keeping it there and suffering the pain. Verily, blessed are the innocent, who do not notice anybody's fault, and the greater credit is to the mature souls, who, recognizing a fault, forget it and so forgive. How true are the words of Christ, 'Let those throw a stone who have not sinned.' The limitations of human life make man subject to faults; some have more faults, some have less, but there is no soul without faults. As Christ says, 'Call me not good.'
Forgiveness is a stream of love, which washes away all impurities wherever it flows. By keeping this spring of love, which is in the heart of people, running, person is able to forgive.
All are welcome. No experience necessary.
