There Is a Field

I’ve just returned from my second weekend intensive in spiritual director training with The Haden Institute. I’m grateful for time apart to learn, to be fed, to not be in charge of something, but, instead, to be fed spiritually.

There is a sacred space at the intensive that is just for creative expression and processing. I painted this piece in response to a Rumi quote that was shared in our morning meditation.

Out beyond the ideas of rightdoing and wrongdoing there is a field. I will meet you there.
-Rumi

  1. Hi, Yes- that is beautiful. I’d not come across that particular Rumi quote before. I like the way you show the roots of the tree, which are anchored way beyond the surface. Or is it the shadow of the branches? ( It may be I need to book my next eye test!)
