Today's Datan from the
Darogan speaks of a
Spiritual Vision, with changing
Pelider in the fourth
and eighth positions, moving to
Starting Point.
At the stroke of midnight, we used the Grith to wrote out the names of those we wanted to release from our lives as we entered the new year. And then we lit a candle and read each name, alternating between ourselves, me reading one name, George reading the next. When all of the names were read we blew out the candle and burned the paper with the names on them in the fireplace, which was stoked high, to wonderfully warm glow. Writing the name in Grith letters was a lot more meaningful George this year since he has joined the Assembly and come to a new understanding of what I have been doing with the Disciples. He has even started to read the trees himself, sometimes spending long periods of time tugging on the branches of trees to get a closer look at the messages they have for us. I have never seen him so obsessed. It seemed so appropriate that the reading from the Darogan today was Spiritual Vision moving to Starting Point. We both felt closer and more intimate than we have in the twenty years we have known each other. We felt like we were entering a new life; a life to be filled with spiritual vision; a vision that we could now share. Praise be, The Blessed Three David Maple-Green DavidMapleGreen@Addewid.com |
