Personal Guidance
Holy places along sacred rivers are mapped pilgrimages of the soul. Performing rituals at them is less about merit and more about saturating yourself in the names and memories the saints left behind.
Reflection Questions

  • What 'ritual' have you done mechanically that could become a doorway if approached with attention?
