Ceremonies
Baby Blessings "Love should be the foundation of all customs and rituals" --Amma Ceremonies
are a valuable way to mark life's rites of passage. They allow us
to honor and celebrate significant moments in our lives, whether it be
a life commitment, the birth of a child, the coming of age, the loss of
a loved one, being grateful for our blessings or facing a particular
challenge. Ceremonies help us to heal from times of strife, share
expressions of love with one anoher, and to
refocus our energies positively towards a new path. They can be
performed privately or among family and friends, and can be
lovingly designed
towards
your own beliefs and needs.

"Come, for
today is for us a day of festival; henceforward joy and pleasure
are on the increase. Clap hands, say, 'Today is all happiness;'
from the beginning it was manifestly a fine day. Who is there in
the world like our Friend? Who has seen such a festival in a
hundred cycles? Earth and heaven are filled with Sugar; in
every direction sugarcane has sprouted. The roar of that
pearl-scattering sea has arrived; the world is full of waves and the
sea is invisible."--Rumi Vanessa
