unit(y

 

.

There is not a fragment in all of nature, for every relative fragment of one thing is a full harmonious unit in itself.   

—John Muir, 1867

.

There is a profound ground of unity that is more pertinent and authentic than all the unilateral dimensions of our lives. This we discover when we keep open the door of our heart. 

This is one’s ultimate responsibility, and it is not dependent upon whether the heart of another is kept open for us.

—Howard Thurman

Stay Open

 

.

 

If I am not conjoined through the uniting of the Below and the Above, I break down into three parts:

the serpent, and in that or some other animal form I roam, living nature daimonically, arousing fear and longing.

the human soul, living forever within you.

the celestial soul, as such dwelling with the Gods, far from you and unknown to you, appearing in the form of a bird.


—Carl Jung
