Dear Sacred Memory –
I am most fortunate to have had the grace to meet and travel with a Hindu holy man, Keshavadas, when I lived in Oakland in the early 1990s. Early in our student-teacher relationship, I was blesses to accompany him and a group of devotees to India on pilgrimage, and while there we visited Mother Teresa’s convent in Calcutta, as imaged here. She was clear in her advice that we should each trust and love God and Jesus. Simply, directly.
In the years since, I have developed a retreat and meditation center. We are gathering a community – a small number of us are permanent residents, and many come annually to stay and work among us as temporary guest retreatants, they add to our community immeasurably. Our community holds as its goals to live in harmony with each other, with nature - as the earth, the plant life, the climate and the unseens – and with all beings who share our planet.
We hold a value for honesty, directness and kindness in our dealings with each other and with those beyond our homes.
And we have found that we are each inherently healers – of our selves, of each other in loving-kindness, and of the whole of mankind as we concern ourselves with the contentment and well-being of all. I love the example that Mother Teresa was and showed us all. She improved the human consciousness and heart by living her truth.
Thank you for this opportunity to share our story.
Namaste,
Donna Daniel, Ed.D.
