NYC: New Moon at Chapel Of Sacred Mirrors

While in NYC for Guruji's tour stop I'll be attending the new moon ceremony at The Grey's COSM. I've been wanting to attend one of these since they opened the place. Many of you are familiar with Alex Grey, especially since I've been ranting about him for the past few weeks. If you've yet to take in his work please take a look at his page and the COSM page. On Alex's page in the news section there is a link to his photos from Dr. Hofmann's one hundredth birthday.

Oooo! I just saw this, which "justifies" more time at COSM!

March 25th
