Temple of Tranquility Release Ideas Survey

The Temple of Tranquility project is a community-driven response to the collective traumas and grief experienced throughout the Boulder community following the tragic King Soopers shooting, the Covid-19 pandemic, the Marshall Fire, and associated challenges of the last two years. The Temple serves as a non-denominational space for contemplation and reverence. This setting for participatory experience is designed to foster community healing, personal expression, catharsis and new beginnings.

The purpose of this survey is to collect ideas for how the community wants to release the temple in a cathartic and safe way that is powerful and doesn't re-traumatize victims and those affected by recent tragedies in and near Boulder. This temple will not include the element of fire or any concept that is reminiscent of fire. Please think broadly and share widely.

We appreciate you,
Temple of Tranquility team

Which ideas do you support for both the structure and the ceremony? Or add your own at the end.

Shred or chip it after it has been written on and use the wood as wood chips/mulch around a tree, newly planted grove with one tree per victim, or garden.

Use sound, audio and resonant devices to transform the energy of the space and heal the people

Incorporate a fountain or water element and invite visitors to write notes on rice paper and drop them into the basin for immediate release

Create a central wooden container with a slot and invite people to deposit notes and messages there that will be burned at a later time or buried in the ground to decompose at an appropriate location.

Collaborate with the Empyrean Temple (https://www.empyreantemple.com/) crew to see if we can include this structure into theirs to burn it at Black Rock City.

Disassemble it to build something else at school, such as a wishing well memorial

Take it to another regional burn to be burned there.
