Rev. Frances Deverell “The Dance of Shiva”
Shiva: ultimate reality; Creator, Sustainer, Destroyer. Standing on a baby: symbol of ignorance. Could all the violence, fear and chaos around us be a necessary part of the cycle of life? Maybe the structures and systems of corruption must be broken to make room for a new foundation for living in relationship with the earth. Let’s explore what it takes to ride the wave of destruction with courage, hope, love and compassion.
