New Moon Reflection

20-11-25

Sweet elephant gift from India & butter lamps to welcome the New Moon.

May the observation of the New Moon assure all sentient beings that endings are also new beginnings.

15 years ago, this pendant was sold at a discount, having lost its competition among the trendier & newer trinkets in the shop.

Recently, this “casualty” of a merchant’s stock clearing exercise was chosen to accompany a person on an important trip to India.

As a result, this humble pendant of inexpensive stones became a witness to many priceless acts of spirituality & charity as it sits close to the wearer’s heart.

Like this pendant, we may lose favour as circumstances change, or even be discarded as the world hurries on. However, if our essential nature is one of stability & kindness, we cannot be defeated. 😊

A blessed new moon to all sentient beings.

The humble pendant of inexpensive white jade & adventurine also brought me these sandalwood gifts from India.
