Survive the Jive

May heaven and earth make me glorious. May lord Indra and the wise sage god Bṛhaspati make me glorious. May I attain the glory of divine light. May this great glory never abandon me. May it never abandon my people, among whom, let me be a speaker of truth.

—Vedas

The Birch Tree - August Strindberg

1902

My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man;
And I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety.

Wordsworth 1888

 

The silent voice of the Eternal is perpetually whispering in us his melodies everlasting.
