The Chapel of Sacred Mirrors, CoSM, recently acquired a 40 acre interfaith retreat center as a permanent home.
Here creative people will join together to build an oasis for spiritual and cultural renewal.
Sixty-five miles north of New York City and just a 20-minute walk from the MetroNorth train stop at New Hamburg, in the town of Wappinger, CoSM will reopen a magnificent new Chapel exhibition environment for the artwork that has become a context for a growing community.
People of all ages, colors, and faiths from around the globe will pilgrimage to this place of beauty to enter into contemplative union with the artworks
and nature.
Embedded in the land will be a sacred geometric crystal gridwork tying together a new vision of Humanity and Nature.
Alex’s sketch for Dragon Gates
"Alex's work, like all great transcendental art, is not merely symbolic or imaginary: it is a direct invitation to recognize and realize a deeper dimension of our very own being."
--Ken Wilber, Integral Philosopher and author,
Director of the Integral Institute
Through these works of art in this splendid setting we will see how every individual is a Sacred Mirror reflecting not only a body but also a soul, not only what we are now but what we can become when our greatest potential of wisdom and compassion
is activated.
We will renovate the brick carriage house for the CoSM collection with over 50 works of mystic art by Alex Grey.
At CoSM, receptive visitors can view higher states of consciousness symbolized in the Sacred Mirrors collection, icons honoring all the worlds traditions, validating and reinforcing the emerging vision of
World Spirit.
Powerfully attune with your creative force at
weekend and week-long workshops emphasizing
Art as a Spiritual Practice.
