  • Isn't it grand, isn't it good, that language has only one word for everything we associate with love - from utter sanctity to the most fleshly lust? The result is perfect clarity in ambiguity, for love cannot be disembodied even in its most sanctified forms, nor is it without sanctity even at its most fleshly. Love is always simply itself, both as a subtle affirmation of life and as the highest passion; love is our sympathy with organic life.

  • If consciousness is the ground of being rather than an epiphenomenon of physical processes, we may find that a basic question asked by modern astronomy and space science- 'Is there life out there?'- should be rephrased.

This is understood by any true, that is to say, not self-deluding, spiritual path.

    Spiritual   Real   Self  
  • Civilization and the life of nations are governed by the same laws as prevail throughout nature and organic life.

    Ernst Haeckel (1916). “Eternity; World-war Thoughts on Life and Death, Religion, and the Theory of Evolution”

Blood and power intoxicate ... the return of the human dignity, repentance and regeneration becomes almost impossible.

  • By forces seemingly antagonistic and destructive Nature accomplishes her beneficent designs - now a flood of fire, now a flood of ice, now a flood of water; and again in the fullness of time an outburst of organic life.

    Fire   Ice   Water
