[Shaahayda Rizvi]

Talking about Jiu Jiu festival in China, Korea, Japan and Vietnam, where the  the ninth day of the ninth lunar month (or double nine) is observed as a sacred holiday. In European countries, the Great Goddess, is honored three times a day, morning, noon, and evening. One at 6:00, then at 12:00 and then at 18:00. It’s a very pleasing sound.

Joe writes, ”  One of the functions of mythology is to present an image of the cosmos in such a way that it becomes the carrier of this mystical realization, so that wherever you look it’s as though you are looking at an icon, a holy picture, and the walls of space and time open out into the deep dimension of mystery, which is a dimension within ourselves, as well as out there.”
