Your Ladyship Samira, it is another moving chapter you relate from the Celestial realm. It is a joy and a comfort to all those who dwell within the halls of Courtecadeno that our two cherished beloveds performed their duties so well and honorably. For it is written within the scriptures that we follow here that those who know the Law shall be greeted by a myriad of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Lucy and her Aidan are true Bodhisattvas of the Earth. We are sending loving prayers for the fortune and happiness of two such honorable souls that are Kievey and Riley, Greyt Hounds of An Tir. We will send them much daimoku. We are in a prayerful mood, my wee band here, for today is the one year anniversary of my Lucy's departure from this material world. And, I never thought I would face this day without my dear Aidan. But, it is a very good thing that the road of life we travel is so curved; for if we could indeed see all our days laid out before us, I think none of us would go on! The invocation of the daimoku (the chanting of Nam Myoho Renge Kyo) is a very good and comforting sign indeed for my Lucy. It means she does indeed have greyt fortune, as does our good Aidan, her companion. I will sleep much better tonight than I might have done. Tonight is a full moon, and a total lunar eclipse. I thank all the gods and goddesses for pulling out all the stops for Lucy's memorial! For, truly, it is a cosmic reminder to all of us that earthly death is merely the brief eclipse from our sight of the living soul of our beloveds which do continue on, forever. The beautiful silver light of the moon will be briefly gone, but not the beautiful moon. She will show herself again, soon enough, be patient and wait. And in one moment, it will transform from the blackest of nights, to one of heavenly illumination!
Greyt Regard to All Here, Mevanwy and the MIB Follow, poet, follow right To the bottom of the night, With your unconstraining voice Still persuade us to rejoice. With the farming of a verse Make a vineyard of the curse, Sing of human unsuccess In a rapture of distress. In the deserts of the heart Let the healing fountains start, In the prison of his days Teach the free man how to praise. ~~ W.H.
