Hello friends,
I'm glad to have found this forum. My name's Lucas and I'm a big admirer of and adherent to (to the best of my ability) to progressive Christian values... I'm currently living in ireland, where there isn't much of a PC presence, so it's great to be able to connect through this online space... I practiced as a zen buddhist for some years and, while I still do zazen regularly, I've come to find great value in devotional practices as well as contemplative prayer... lately I often meditate on Kali, the Hindu goddess of liberation... for me the avatar is really just a focus to facilitate my devotion to union with God, so whatever symbol works is the one I'll use..
Anyhoooo.... I like so much of what I've read on here, and I really value PC's adherence to questioning, embracing mystery and truth... for me, that's what spiritual life and growth is all about... I look forward to sharing with folks on the boards
All the best,
Lucas
