Millicent Marquart offers a prayer to White Tara, a female Bodhisattva, in her Perrysburg Township home.

Faith is "...a belief that there is something greater than myself. The journey is to try to understand that. ... It's a personal quest. When one lets go of thought there's a space that's created, and that happens in meditation and it also happens in mindfulness, which is in the present, and it happens for me a lot in nature. When you let go of thought and are in that space, for me, that's the space of God, Creator, Source, whatever you want to call it."
