What to Expect
Background
Borrowing from Joanna Macy’s site:
This ritual exercise provides a simple, respectful, whole group structure for owning and honoring our pain for the world, and for recognizing its authority and the solidarity it can bring. The practice emerged in 1992 amidst a large, tension-filled workshop in Frankfurt, on the day of reunification between East and West Germany; since then it has spread to many lands. To many participants it has been the most significant experience in a workshop, if not in their lives.
Our adaptation of the Truth Mandala Grief Ritual will be held at reserved picnic tables at Los Gatos Creek Park. Light refreshments and water/tea will be served afterwards.
