Beyond the Fields We Know: Water, Stone, Leaf and Clouds

Wise Words

These pages, too, are nothing other than talking leaves—their insights stirred by the winds, their vitality reliant on periodic sunlight and on cool dark water seeping up from within the ground. Step into their shade. Listen close. Something other than the human mind is at play here.

David Abram, Becoming Animal

When we deliberately leave the safety of the shore of our lives, we surrender to a mystery beyond our intent.

Ann Linnea, Deep Water Passage

Winding river, endless mountains—the dark forest breathing mist. There is no road into the sacred place. It’s just that, the deeper you go, the more wondrous it becomes.

John Daido Loori, The True Dharma Eye

We live in a sea of light.
Henry Plummer, The Poetics of Light

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

Oscar Wilde, Lady Windermere's Fan
