On Blessings

Benedictus - A Book of Blessings”

A blessing is a circle of light drawn around a person to protect, heal and strengthen. A blessing is different from a greeting, a hug, a salute or an affirmation; it opens a different door in human encounter. A blessing awakens future wholeness.

To invoke a blessing is to call some of that wholeness upon a person now. A blessing is from soul to soul. When you bless someone, you literally call the force of their infinite self into action.
