Thank you for this Erkka! I have always felt as you do about group celebrations and religious holidays and the like. I do love drawing parallels to the stories: rebirth, cycles of change, etc. Recently, I've been interested in that feeling of belonging, and wondering why, if I believe that I am a vibration in a field of vibration and everything is One, do I wish that many people would just stay over there? So I've been practicing the idea of seeing the divinity in each being, the way I see it in trees and dogs. It brings me back to the veil through which I see the world, this veil of my history and preferences. What would it be like to let it go and just see each being I encounter purely equal, purely divine as me? Well, anyway, I'm working on it. :) All the best! Clem
