Spiritual Preparation
Part of A Chorus of Faiths
The Buddhist concept of "beginner's mind" can be helpful when engaging with familiar stories. Even if you already know the story of the flaming chalice, try to review it before this workshop without expectations. Perhaps you will connect to different details in the story, because experiences have changed you since the last time you encountered it. When you present the story to the group, try to keep that same spirit of "beginner's mind," to enrich the experience for everyone.
