Welcome to the blog of the Golden Lifetree

With various exhibitions and events it creates a platform for people to meet each other and nature freely and blissfully anew for a peaceful, harmonious and conscious living together on planet Earth.

Farewell-Silent Visit with
Erica arborea

(La Gomera, Canarian Islands, Spain)

The first route of the Caravan of the Golden Lifetree from Budapest to La Gomera will conclude with an honorable Silent Visit and meditation with an ancient Erica arborea…

She is the forcegiving tree for the first Golden Lifetree Motherpainting and the first tree that has been honored by a Silent Visit. After the ceremonial closing of the first Golden Lifetree Event series and exhibition in 2013 this act initiated the spirit of the Golden Light Network of Trees.

The Caravan of the Golden Lifetree is going to prepare the next steps in the coming weeks and continue to share upcoming dates and events on this platform. Smoenjala and the Golden Lifetree team are happy when the contributions, impressions and information in this blog can ench many people. We are grateful for your reviews and sharings.
