	The Mystic Gryphon
The Mystic Gryphon Lammas Contest

The Mystic Gryphon and The Temple of Divine Mysteries would like to thank all those who responded for taking the time and making the wonderful efforts represented in the entries which we received. The entries were judged by the elders of The Temple of Divine Mysteries in a blind evaluation (ie, no names were present on the entries). After much deliberation, careful thought, much arguing and head banging (just kidding) the "best" three entries were chosen. It is difficult to label any group of the entries as "best" since they were all wonderful. But, we felt that the following three entries reached the essence of the contest to a greater degree than the others.
Congratulations to the three "best" entries and to everyone who entered.

Bio:

Listen to your inner voice one and all. Look within yourselves to discover the universe and its secrets. Within you exists the universe while at the same time you are but a speck within the multiverse. Examine all things for there are always two sides to all knowledge, nothing can exist without a counter balance. Remember, what happens in the cosmos transpires down here and what happens down here transcends unto the heavens. Enjoy life and celebrate with each other, live life to the fullest.
