• On the mainland, a rain was falling. The famous Seattle rain. The thin, gray rain that toadstools love. The persistent rain that knows every hidden entrance into collar and shopping bag.

The rain that seems actually a secret language, whispering, like the ecstasy of primitives, of the essence of things.

  Tom Robbins

  Rain, Fall, Shopping

• Las oraciones están diseñadas para elevar la conciencia de Dios cinco veces al día, a lo largo de toda la vida. Las oraciones también proporcionan un ejercicio regular -como el yoga, el Tai Chi o el Qigong- y sirven como un retiro calmante de las exigencias diarias de la vida.
