Here's a springtime poem from E.E. Cummings:
O sweet spontaneous earth
how often have the doting fingers of
prurient philosophers pinched and poked thee,
has the naughty thumb of science
prodded thy beauty?
How often have religions taken thee
upon their scraggy knees
squeezing and buffeting thee
that thou mightest conceive gods?
(But true to the incomparable couch of death
thy rhythmic lover
thou answerest them only with spring.)

The Soul Garden - Boulder Hot Springs
Thursday, May 8th - Sunday, May 11th near Boulder MT. Cost $350 (Early registration: $315)
Join Matthew Marsolek and Patrick Marsolek in a dynamic exploration of what it means to be conscious and embodied on this living earth.
- A springtime retreat for awakening and caring for the inner garden which sustains our lives.
- Experience the fellowship and support of an open-hearted community.
- Celebrate the glory of the season.
The inner and outer are intimately connected. Advances in science are giving us new maps of the landscape of consciousness as well as a deeper understanding of the balance of life on our planet. What maps are guiding your life at this time? We will bring this investigation into our time together.
A feeling of fullness comes,
but usually it takes some bread
to bring it.
Beauty surrounds us,
but usually we need to be walking
in a garden to know it.- Rumi
Trance Drumming - Whitefish
This one day workshop will be on Friday evening, May 30th, from 6:30 PM until 10:00. Cost - $35
This evening workshop will explore working with trance, intuition, and setting intention. We will explore individually and collectively our own unconscious and higher consciousness potentials.
We will use the
sounds of the drum and the rattle as well as other conscious mechanisms
for exploring and experiencing trance. Through trance we gain
access to deeper parts of ourselves and of our collective group
energy for insight, clarity of purpose, healing, and even personal
transformation.
