Newcomers must arrive by 5:00pm for orientation.
James Hillman, the Jungian analyst said, “I don’t think anything changes until ideas change. Hillman also said that to develop Strength of Mind – our receptivity to the knock of spirit and all that it is inviting us to see, to awaken and to know – becomes “the welfare of the soul.’’ Hillman concluded that Knowledge “is the way the soul comes to understand itself.” By this reasoning, Strength of Mind acts as a clarity mirror that allows for thoughtful receptivity, contemplation and discernment in relationship to all new knowledge becoming available to us in our ever-changing life experience. To develop Strength of Mind, which is the open mental capacity to contend with the deeper challenges of life experience effectively, our relationship to Knowledge must become flexible, attuned, receptive, clear. What blocks this? What are the ideas that we harbor or practice repeatedly that block our receptivity to new knowledge and strength of mind? How might we identify these ideas, thoughts, opinions or beliefs that block us from new knowledge and strength of mind? In this purification lodge we will pray to identify and release ourselves from ideas, opinions, thought or beliefs that block us from greater Strength of Mind.
It is important to be on time, especially if you are a newcomer. Know that you will be welcomed into the community and cared for once you arrive.
