In Landscapes of the Sacred, Lane talks about his Third Axiom, which is; Sacred Place can be tread upon without being entered. He was speaking of a clearing in the woods where he had been before, but never experienced anything religious. But this time, he entered it in a different state of mind, and that allowed him to see it for it's true mysticism. This thought interested me because there are plenty of places that we go, and when we first go there, they are not that special. But then maybe something special happens there, like you meet someone, or you discover something about yourself, and then that place can become sacred to you, even though it wasn't at first. It's like when I first moved to the city I live in, and nothing meant anything really, except my house. But now when I drive around there, there are countelss places where funny or memorable things happened, but these places were not that special to me the first time I had been there. Think about it, are there places like this for you?
