Ancient Baptismal Bowls

In the “Sacred Relics and Icons” section of this website are recent images of fifth and sixth century baptismal bowls preserved at archaeological sites. You probably know that Christianity was vastly different then. The divinity of Jesus was a hotly contested topic. The practice of full immersion baptism of adults was in general use. Each of these ancient bowls had fallen out of use and had been abandoned.

I decided to restore these ancient bowls and began to explore them by getting inside one of them some years ago. To my surprise, the bowl immediately came alive and offered me a powerful blessing not dissimilar from my own baptism experience as an adult in my early fifties. However, there was an important difference. The ancient bowl offered an almost overpowering female energy, an effusive blessing which was generous, gentle, quiet, and soft. Each of the bowls presented here offers a variation of this blessing.

You may discover that each time you sit with one of these recordings the blessing deepens and deepens. These wondrous energies date back to the origins of Christianity.
