Join Rolling Ridge staff to camp overnight Thursday, May 15, and watch that evening's total lunar eclipse, beginning at 9:02 pm, darkest at 10:40 pm. Some of the folks from Friends Wilderness Meditation Shelter will also be camping that evening.
The greatest gift of all is an awakened, unconstrained, limitless heart. It takes you out of your skin and fills you with such compassion that, in the words of one of my Bushmen teachers, "It even makes you love the man who stole your wife." I have no doubt that the Bushmen doctors of the Kalahari hold the most important answer to the world's present state of crisis, terror, and madness. It is not found in any defense budget, technological development, or politician's deal. It is found in each and every one of our hearts. It's the oldest news that can set us free and it is found when one surrenders to the hot, sweaty, weeping steam of love, the love that reveals the ropes that take us straight to the Big God.
