Dear Pace Dancers,

As Hafiz said,
“... Look in a clear mountain mirror- See … the Divine elements you always carry inside that infused this Universe with sacred Life so long ago and join you Eternally with all Existence- with God!” – excerpt from “You Don’t Have To Act Crazy Anymore,” p. 3 in Ladinsky, D. 2006. I Heard God Laughing…Renderings of Hafiz. 91pp. Penguin, NY.

We will practice awareness of the ancient divine elements in powerful combinations Saturday June 1, at 7-9 PM at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Columbia, 2701 Heyward St. Columbia SC 29205.  Nancy Vakil, Nancy Noorunissa, and I will teach and lead walks and dances combining two or more of the ancient elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether.  We expect that these walks and Dances will bring a blessing of peace, both in and around us.

After dancing, we will socialize over refreshments.  Small donations accepted.

If you’re coming, please contact Marguerite <mff426@gmail.com>, 803-743-0731.  We are looking forward to seeing you there.

Peace,

Marguerite

Dear Peace Dancers,

As Hafiz said,

“Awake, my dear. Be kind to your sleeping heart.  Take it out into the vast fields of Light and let it breathe.

Say, ‘Love, give me back my wings. Lift me, lift me nearer.’

Say to the sun and moon, say to our dear Friend, ‘I will take You up now, Beloved, on that wonderful Dance You promised!’”

[-from Awake  Awhile, p 38 in I Heard God Laughing, Renderings of HAFIZ by Daniel Ladinsky, 2006. Penguin, NY]

We are preparing a wonderful Dance for you on Saturday May 4 at 7-9 PM at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Columbia, 2701 Heyward St. Columbia SC 29205.  Nancy Vakil, Nancy Noorunissa, and I will teach and lead walks and dances of the sun and moon.  These Dances of Universal Peace have been inspired by a variety of spiritual traditions, and help us to experience peace in both our inner and outer world.
