    A Pond in the Woods and Some Dogs (and Vimarsha)

    ByElizabeth April 7, 2014

    I’ve been told that the tantric yoga masters said everything is the emanating light of consciousness with a capital “C” (prakasha) and through certain esoteric practices we can come to know ourselves as reflecting back on (vimarsha) this exquisite light.  Then we can experience the sublimity of oneness.

    Intentional stillness makes reflections easier to witness.  And so we sit.  And we can reorient our whole view of the world and recognize the emanating light reflected in the play of patterns from our individual and relational embodied dances.  And sometimes a trio of dogs and a pond just make a great opportunity for a photo essay.

    Found Quotations (“For Remembrance”)

    ByElizabeth April 6, 2014

    In recent months, I have listened to the stories of a number of close friends and co-workers as they navigate the difficult process of saying their good-byes to the tangible, physical embodiment of a loved one and participating in the loved one’s own good-bye.

    I find myself filled with memories of those I still love though the loved one is no longer embodied in the physical form in which I met them.  For me and for those with whom I share my memories, they live on as such and. in greater and lesser amounts, in how I think, respond, and act to this day and beyond.

    Guests at Judy Chicago’s Dinner Party

    ByElizabeth April 5, 2014

    A few of the guests at Judy Chicago’s Dinner Party, on view at the Brooklyn Museum, in particular caught my attention when I visited last weekend.

    It’s worth visiting if you have never seen this invocation to the many facets of the goddess–calling her by many of her many, many names, reminiscent of the yogis invocations to the 330 million god(desses).
