The Desert and the Spiritual Quest
Last night I returned from the desert to NDE in Las Vegas to drop off some equipment and bring our friend, Kelly from Food Not Bombs home. Food Not Bombs provided a fabulous meal consisting of a green salad, rice, beans and baked potatoes along with a sweet bread for desert. (Thank you Kelly, Charles and Gail for all your great work!) Eating in the desert at sunset, after a day of walking is one of those sublime pleasures earned only through hours of walking, as walking in the desert transforms consciousness and tends to improve the appetite too.
