Closing Chapter

 

 

After 18 years, it is time to say goodbye to the Bhavana Project as an active project.  It has been a rich and fulfilling experience.  I appreciated the process while meeting new friends, and finding joy in each heart felt contribution. It inspired numerous related prayer flag events and projects over the years.  Though I feel sadness at letting go, I am also looking forward to what new experiences life will offer.

Enjoy exploring the journey of the flags on this site.

Deep gratitude to all who have participated since 2005!

Be well,   

Linda

You stand on the shore of new invitation

To open your life to what is left undone;

Let your heart enjoy a different rhythm

When drawn to the wonder of other horizons.

~John O'Donohue, excerpt "For Retirement"

4th Flag Set Completed!

Yay!  The current set of Bhavana Project flags, that began in 2015, is complete with 12 flags.  It is always  a joy to see what arises.  I was motivated to finish this set.  The inspiration came after recently hearing W.H. Murray's quote: "Find beauty. Be still.".  Enjoy!

 

I may be changing the process how future sets are created, so stay tuned.   Please get in touch if you would like to join us.

 

Compassion

The flags have returned.  Margot Ettl created a wonderful addition to the set by designing flags that spell out "Compassion."  Flags within flags are delightful!

In Memoriam

Sadly I have learned of the death of  Linda Friedman.  She had a big heart and a warrior spirit.  She will be missed.

Please enjoy Linda's flag contribution from 2013.  She wrote:  "Soar to the stars.  Peace is within."

Linda and her Granddaughter

We Belong...

After a long period without much activity, I am happy to share a new addition to the current set of flags.  Candace Peterson-Kahn from Redondo Beach has created a lovely heartfelt image for her flag.  Enjoy!

Thank you, Candace, for your wonderful contribution!

A Quiet Year

Sharing a few photos from a recent Creative Circle workshop that I taught at the Eagle Rock Shambhala Meditation Center.  The theme was Threads of Aspiration.  Participants had the option of working with cloth or paper to share their aspiration.  It was a delightful creative afternoon.

The flags are on the move once again after a long quiet spell.  Stay tuned for photos once they return.

Wishing everyone a peace filled Holiday Season!

For the New Year

Wishing you and yours a safe and peaceful New Year!
