Moments In The Mandala: A Collection Of Poems

The word mandala comes from Sanskrit, the ancient language of India. The root, "manda" indicates and essence; the suffix "la" is the circle or context of the essence. I have been working with Judity Cornell's mandala healing process for several year to provide a mirror, a way to organize my life experiences. I use poetry to the same end. Cancer was one moment in my mandala and this volume would not likely have been published without that gift, that blessing, of learning to live live to it's fullest potential in each moment. "Moments in the Mandala" includes many of my efforts to express my quest for understanding of the events we all encounter in life, from ecstasy to despair, from love to abandonment. These poems are also circular, in their own way, and express the essence of my perceived reality, both inner and outer at that moment in space time. It is my hope that readers will find resonance and value in these crystalized moments.
