Visiting
The Portal

Dear ones,

 

In ancient times, art and architecture were designed to help people cultivate collective and personal wellbeing, wholeness and harmony-- a form of medicine. The portal is beautifully created for this nondenominational purpose. 

 

Even though it is located on private property, we welcome you to drop in and sit in its frequencies from Wednesday to Sunday between 10am to 4pm, April through November. Admission is free.

The Portal of Universal Being is a contemplative space. Respecting the presence of others, we ask that people maintain silence within the circle.

 

If members of the community wish to offer an event or gathering in alignment with the function of the portal, we welcome you to contact us.​

Blessings,

Linley
