Happy Wholy-days to You, our Beautiful WF Sangha
We've covered a whole lot of varied terrain and mystical ether again this year in DL and so,
From Beneath the Sacred Peak, we send heart-felt wishes for you and your
family to share a Sacred Wholiday Celebration in what ever form may it assume. For those
celebrating Christmas; Birth of Jesus, Hanukkah;The Festival of Lights, Navaratri;
The Nine Divine Nights (a Hindu Festival) Kwanzaa: based on the seven guiding principles
in the African culture, or the Winter Soul-stice here on Turtle Island. The Paths are Many, Truth is One.
In closing we offer you this prayer gifted us from HP Yogini Shanyn:
May God bless us with discomfort at easy answers, half-truths, and superficial relationships, so that we will live
deep in our hearts. May God bless us with anger at injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people and the earth,
so that we will work for justice, equity, and peace. May God bless us with tears to shed for those who suffer,
so we will reach out our hands to comfort them and change their pain to joy. And may God bless us with the
foolishness to think that we can make a difference in the world, so we will do the things which
others say cannot be done.
--Interfaith Council for Peace and Justice
