One of my "finds" at the annual Rotary Book Sale. This is the way I need to learn. Too much abstraction does not work for me. Very calming. Excellent addendum on six types of meditation. So grateful.

CITY TREATY
Marvin Francis. CITY TREATY. Turnstone, 2002.
Wanted to re-read this one for research on my TRC Quilt. It still stands up. Still reminds me of Martin Luther nailing the Protestant manifesto to the church door, and of Chris Woods sacred urban spaces--McDonalds, West Edmonton Mall, Vancouver street Stations of the Cross, etc. Questioning what are our priorities, and whether the sacred can be resuscitated, and Indigenous culture given space to breathe.
