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!

 

 

Peace to All...

For this peace themed prayer flag, we revisit Judy Warner's beautiful contribution to the 3rd Bhavana Project set in May 2012.   Her words read "Peace to all who enter here" embellished by the Celtic knot work design.

Here is a bit of history if you are just joining us.  This is the third set created for the Bhavana Project, which is an ongoing community art work intending to share wishes and aspirations with the wider world.  New participants are always welcome!

Peace From Maui

Sharing peace with Lahar Goldberg's flag from May 2009.  Lahar: "sometimes we come from another direction than someone else, but we discover that we have a common purpose so we can mingle peacefully and support a common vision, even if we come from a different point of view. Thanks so much for awakening the creative process in me with cloth, thread and color." 

If you are just joining us, this set of prayer flags began in 2009 under the theme "Reflections on Peace".  It is the third set created for the Bhavana Project, which is an ongoing community art work intending to share wishes and aspirations with the wider world.  New participants are always welcome!
