Sacred Playground

  Sacred Playground is a portal into Burning Man, and the rest of the world, as a sacred experience. Many of us have been taught to confuse sacred with "serious" or "conservative." Burning Man is neither of these, and recognizing the Burning Man festival as an expression of sacredness is a very powerful and rewarding experience. The intent of our camp is to offer a grounded, playful space where we begin to understand the full expression of our being as Animal, Human, and Divine.
 


"Sacred Playground" in 2002 was an experiment based on "the knock of spirit," as Carlos Casteneda puts it in the book, The Power of Silence. Spirit knocked, and we answered. We have now confirmed that the spirits of the land in the Black Rock desert are very happy to inform and enhance our celebration of creativity and freedom. They want to assist us in moving to a higher frequency of awareness and ecstatic joy. We see that the activities of spirits and humans in this process have activated the Black Rock Desert as a "power place" which magnifies the energy of the event and sends it out to the rest of the world. This is the great gift of the Burning Man festival not only to its participants, but to all of humanity.

Sacred Playground as a theme camp is dedicated to to supporting positive, grounded, creative, and loving expressions of the human experience. As mentioned above, this is not about being serious, but it is about expanding our awareness, deepening our roots, and expressing our joy as a service to ourselves and the community of Black Rock City.
