"I
want to thank you again for the remarkable space you created on
Tuesday...welcoming dances, chants and live music...inviting us all to
"let go" of the stuff of our chaotic, confusing world, and sink into a
deep space of engaging peace. Two days later I am still touched by and
feel connected to this depth connection of peace that surprises me when
it rises up to meet my breath...it is odd and interesting how letting
this peace touch me at my depths causes me to feel alive in an intimate
sort of way. I've had the good fortune to have personal immersion
experiences into some of the cultures represented by Tuesday's dances.
As we were dancing, it was as if the ancestral spirits from the various
cultures were there dancing with us, as we collectively moved our feet
and our bodies in the living, flowing rhythms that brought their people
together so long ago."
"It
is a beautiful thing to see how these dances are so much more than a
spiritual practice, that these dances represent a way of life that so
long ago had a way of weaving and unifying daily activities, work and
spiritual expression as harmonious expressions of one life. So unlike
our hectic modern world where these three facets of life are easily
fragmented and become separate expressions that compete for our time,
energy and resources. We can easily sink into alienating relationships
to how we live our lives."
"I
am so grateful you keep these rhythms alive in dance and song, to help
us remember collectively how important this all is. This is more
essential than ever now...as rapid shifts and changes are disrupting the
lives of many. There is a great "invisible" need to step back into the
rhythms of ife...that easily goes unnoticed. I love the way the Dances
Of Universal Peace have of taking us into this deep immersion experience
to release stress and tension, and to remember again...after we've had a
long challenging experience...what peace brings back to our daily
living."
"Thank you so much for what you do in this regard. Love and blessing to you both...and to your precious 'work'."
