Philosophy | Friend Nature: Artist D.A. Hartley

Ganesa

Lord of the Hosts. Breaker of the way, and guide of the soul.

“Bondage is of the mind. A man is free if he constantly thinks: ‘I am a free soul.

How can I be bound, whether I live in the world or in the forest?

I am a child of God, the Kings of Kings. Who can bind me?’

Repeating with grit and determination, ‘I am not bound, I am free,’

one really becomes so – one really becomes free.” Sri Ramakrishna

“Almost all the ancient theories of cycles of great time were found

in combination with myths of a golden age.

The cycle starts with a golden age, followed by successive ages of

decadence and degeneration

in all things. At the end of the last age of the cycle the world

undergoes a general dissolution and is then regenerated.

There is a new golden age, and so on in an eternal recurrence.”

Rupert Sheldrake, The Presence of the Past.
