A walk for harmony...

 Paul Be of Glastonbury has just completed a mammoth pilgrimage walking the Michael Line from Norfolk to Cornwall.

A feat many have undertaken but the unique aspect of Paul's journey is that he did it on STILTS!  His journey was undertaken  to raise up the spirit of Harmony and Togetherness and to raise funds for Shelter, a charity that helps homeless people. 

Before undertaking the journey, Paul said;
"I am an Ex Royal Marine commando and in 2007 found myself without a home. The pain, suffering, loneliness and struggles that I felt through those years, I wish personally for no one else to ever have to experience. I eventually realized I had been deeply depressed, and it took me until the end of 2011 to finally get my life back on track and find my feet again.  I found my way back into society through a number of spiritual awakenings. Certain people were able to give me hope, and the nature was my main guiding principle and medicine. 
I aim to raise awareness for the spirit of the Earth and to call for the need to return towards a state of harmony with nature and each other."

Paul began his journey on the 29th September and completed it today. Before he set off, Paul came into the Centre and Morgana West lit a tea light from the Glastonbury Unity Candle and together with a simple blessing was given to Paul to carry with him on his journey.

Paul's journey has been followed by many on his Walk for Harmony Facebook page where you can find many stories of the places he visited, the people he has met and a wonderful photographic record of his journey. 

The final leg of his journey ended at the altar in the Chapel on St Michael's Mount where he lit and placed the small tealight, carrying the light and the message from the Unity Candle. The chapel had been especially opened by Lady St Levan so that Paul could complete his pilgrimage.

Well done Paul - an amazing an incredible journey. 

If you would like to show support of Paul and help in his work to raise money for Shelter, you can donate here...
