Kingdom, which Kingdom?

Well that was fun. Not that I am a monarchist, but it was fun seeing the spectacle in my world. I was standing next to two people from Sao Paulo and I said that my outfit was Brazilian. The young guy said "we don't have anything like that in Brazil" He was adamant. So I spoke to him in Portuguese about the Valley and he was quite mortified that my beautiful costume came from Brazil. I don't know why really. Hmmmm....I think he thought it was very uncool. I had replaced Yves St Laurent with Glama a la Vale de Amanhecer.
Sometimes the interior of Brazil is seen as the authentic Brazil by the literati. But other times it is seen as the backwater of beyond.

The Valley of Dawn is a Kingdom on earth. It is mystical, divine, and powerful. I am really in awe of how such a magical place can exist in this day and age.
There is so much meaning to what they do and their spiritism seems to follow tried and true methods of using helping spirits to heal people.
Do I believe in spirits? I think I do. Do I believe in God, maybe not. But the force of love in our universe has a flavour and seems to go way beyond the neutrality of energy and matter, cause and effect.
Here we see Genis praying in the temple.
