flint and silica
Hi Linda,
Well good luck with that.
I have found that if things go wrong we tend to blame ourselves. If we get
what we want we give the gods the credit. To be consistant we should either
give them the blame and the thanks.
A dangerous game if they are in charge of everything.

It is not a matter of control or being in in charge. It is
about letting go. Acts of devotion are primarily about "inside" the
skin sack. Not outside.
Speaking of quartz/flint/silica, go here to see my and my Akita
Taiko in front of a burning hill of my favorite source of silica:
Rice hull ash. I am the one wearing the straw hat:
