Burgos, Spain
report by Nicole Cressiot
We spent May 22nd and 23rd in Burgos, where some 15 to 20 people gathered over the course of the two days, and we held an SOPP ceremony indoors to conclude the retreat. Our SOPP consisted of prayers for the continents and each country, the Divine Spark IN, dances of universal peace, as well as mantras and songs. The sound of a Tibetan singing bowl accompanied the prayers.
A bit of wonderful news we received was that the registration of the Sinfonia de Paz Association was completed in Burgos, and that the group could now participate in peace events, and can more easily rent space for their events, etc. An immense thank you to the wonderful and amazing friends of Byakko in Spain, who have been active for the last 20 years, and without whom none of this could happen! And thank you also to Maria Caterina Putignano, the catalyst for all these activities!
