A shrine emerged based on the conditions on this retreat: Nayaka's vison of a bowl and a robe, Dhivan and I talking about rupas resembling real human beings that inspire both of us, Khemaka and Carole setting out to make it happen, Dhivan's trip to New Zealand to lead study where he received a set of visual images representing the nidana chain. All must have started though, with the Buddha being born, but probably way before that, beyond time and location.
