For Retno, peace, and souls in Bali

[avad]

(From my friend Retno)
My dearest friends:

I’m sure most of you have heard of the recent terrorist bombings in Bali. I would like to respectfully ask if you can please visit a body of water nearby (ocean, lake etc.) and light a candle or scatter some bright colored flowers along with a simple prayer or thoughts of peace. We Indonesians believe that such cleansing acts will help release the victims’ soul high to the heaven and skies…

Thank you in advance for joining me in this traditional cleansing ceremony… Your time and efforts are deeply appreciated.

Much love, Retno

.....and so, I went to 'the magic bay' again...this time with a bowl of daisies picked from our yard. Such peace and magic there (always- can you blame me for wanting to live near to this spot forever and ever)...I can only hope that all I connected with there can spread and enter the hearts and souls throughout space. I prayed and floated the daisies one by one....little missionaries of peace travelling across the water... and picturing others engaged in similar hopeful rituals in so many other places....perhaps you?

holy water


tiny offerings


little missionaries, vessels for light


activated with thoughts and prayers


the universe accepts

bask....




....Then upon leaving the bay I saw monarch butterflies everywhere......


I mean Everywhere!:)
