Looking to the past we are reminded of where we came from and how far we have come and at the same time as a possible pointer to where we are going. During this pilgrimage we stepped away from our previous silent pilgrimages to walk and the chance to get to know each other a little deeper. Together we trekked 18km along the beautiful Galloping Goose Trail from Luxton in Langford to the home of our former temple in Sooke, Kokizan-ji (Red Flag Mountain Temple). Pilgrimage \u2013 extended walking practice \u2013 is recognized in most spiritual traditions as a form of moving meditation, and is a physical manifestation of the spiritual path itself. We may travel together with good company, yet each of us has to make the walk ourselves.<\/p>\n
Perhaps, if someone would like to step up, organize volunteers and make arrangements for another pilgrimage we will once again walk as like minded companions on the Way.<\/p>\n
