Sufi Class Wednesday, February 19 Tigert House 224 NE 10th Ave., Gainesville, Florida 7:00 PM "The Truth and the Way" Reading from Hazrat Inayat Khan Prayers, Practices, Teachings, Sharing Please RSVP Puddles Coming down the half mile driveway is a scenic experience.  Be sure to drive slowly taking in the green field on the left with mama cows & calves, & on the right "driveway parks" carved out of the wild woods to highlight the big trees flowing with Spanish moss.  It's always important to drive slowly keeping a watchful eye for tortoises who may be munching grass, & staying in the tracks, off the grass, median or sides.  Puddles, if present, are not deep, & the tracks are hard underneath, so you can drive right through them, unlike the sides with may be soft & mucky. Enjoy the trip!

Thank you  so very much  for going above and beyond (against all odds!) I am so happy to have experienced the dance for the New Year. "A Secret One" was sublime.   Tee Lee It was just wonderfully fulfilling FULFILLING! Lane Devereaux           Healing Dance           1. Ya Shafee, ya Khafee                Sidestep left, hands toward center,     wrists crossed with neighbors 2. Let me do thy will, Allah          Face partner or walk left.      Open hands raised high, bringing     hands down, folding over heart    Allah, Allah                             Offer heart in cupped palms, opening    up & out, as a cup, offering love. 3. La illaha illa 'llah   (inner circle)   shoulder to shoulder, fingers interlaced Thanks you Diana for your leadership in creating & sustaining this event over the years, and to Patrick for his excellent photography.           Isabel I especially like the picture of the 3 different types of shoes:  a clever shot that says a lot about how the dances are open to all types. I really liked the song at the end with the bells. What a great way to "ring" in the new year!           Jean McCauley * more photos at:   www.PeacockParadise.org Nayaz Beloved Lord, Almighty God, Through the rays of the sun, Through the waves of the air, Through the all-pervading life in space, Purify and revivify me, and I pray Heal my body, heart and soul. Hazrat Inayat Khan

"On a metaphysical level, when you sing your heart opens.  That's why    all religions & traditions have made so much of singing in their rituals.   When the heart opens, you feel good.  It's that simple."      Deva Premal
