Dear God/ess, I have never gone to The Grotto Of Lourdes in the Autumn before, and yesterday was such a beautiful Autumn day. The moment we stepped inside the Grotto Grounds, beauty abounded everywhere. Beautiful reds, oranges and yellows.
Every time we go back, the spot looks different. The pool around the majestic Mother Mary near the site of the Holy Water, was dark and seemingly endless. (below).The pool during the summer is green and the bottom is perfectly visible. (above). The stand upon which the Mother stands has also been beautified with the artistry of masonry work.
Walking down the pathway towards the chapel reminded us of entering a womb of the Mother.
Walking out again reminded us of going towards the light, as in the birthing experience.
Do you think this is what Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton had in mind every day she walked the rugged grounds, in a meditative state, communing with the very heart of Christ Consciousness in 1809?
Om Peace Amen
