Weather blessing
Through the cycles of new moons and full moons,
we’ve travelled on a myriad of pathways,
through weathers of all the personalities of the Gods.
Snow may have been your playmate or your trickster,
you may have been caressed or pelted by the rain,
found you way through fog,
stood up to the wind.
Today we arrive in this holy place,
we bring
The hope of a new day
This morning is a gift.
Every morning you have another chance.
Sometimes you do nothing,
sometimes you get lucky and the day shines on you
but how often do you seize the day with your hands and make it your own?
This morning may we wake up to this new day and this life with each other
and try to build
Come into the calming, creative, warm energy of this holy place
Come into the calming, creative, warm energy of this holy place
Come into the spirit of curiosity, of exploration and questioning offered by this community
Come, bring your humanity, bring your beauty and your doubts, bring your gifts and your losses and we will welcome you on our journey of hope
Such quiet ecstasy
Deepening
Falling
Sinking
Into Spherical Endlessness
Such Peaceful Reverie
Expanding
Absorbing
Melting
Into Vibrant Spaciousness
Such Simple Profundity
Bathing
Gliding
Opening
Into Anointed Presence
Streams of Light and Nectar
Fill my Being
In Delight
Granting Blessings and Purifying –
My Baptism
Of Service,
My Refuge
Of Self,
My Becoming
Into Being,
My Inner Worship.

Inner dancing
Luxuriating Light
Flashes and Sparkles
Dancing to Joy
As the Double Base
Of the Dantien
Steadies the Beat,
Grounding the Rhythm
Of His excited Apsaras,
Catching vibrations as they twirl –
No effort to their Grace.
The cold floorboards
Compliment the Heat of the Dance
In the Open Hallway of my Mind.
Heart-flames caress my cheek
Reminding me,
“I’m Here” –
No distance to
Dance with my Unveiled Self
Who tunes her
Crossing and dwelling
My Soul, a boat unto Thy Shores
I pray for winds to Guide and Reach
To land, and curiously to explore
To be the same no more.
Heart-waves breaking onto Crashing Shore
Thy Peace, overflows my broken raft
And, leaking, weeping, with breast-filled ache
I am shipwrecked in Thy Grace.
May I ever rest with Thee
In this most sacred inner place.

Prayer for Advent
Eternal spirit, indwelling in us all, may we never forget the significance of advent as a time of preparation, not just for Christmas, but for the passing of the old year and the welcoming of the new.
