This walk is a reflection of, and an act of praise to, our Creator. |

Until recently it was believed that creation took place about 10,000
years ago.
Now we know that already 200 years before Moses was born,
King Tut III was ruling Egypt’s 18th Dynasty and indigenous tribes
were living on the North American continent. Through scientific discoveries, we now know that creation began about 15 billion years ago
(13.7 billion to be exact!) and that it continues today.
The Cosmic Walk is a ritual celebration of events in that unfolding story coded in our own bodies. Every atom in our bodies is about 15 billion years old...and that, yes, we are dust – stardust – made of minerals like calcium, potassium and iron. These were once in a star named Tiamat which became a supernova.
Loretto Maryholme’s meditative cosmic walk has 18 small garden circles. These are spaced in billion year segments
with some segments having more than one garden station. The walk begins at the edge of the savannah and winds through
the property to the lake. At the start of your walk you will find an information card which outlines the particular aspect
that each garden circle acknowledges in the evolutionary process of creation. Learn more about Cosmic Walks
