Visitation of Beauty
“Visitation of Beauty” | Anthony Satori
One afternoon, a leaf fluttered down from the sky and landed softly on the window of my car. I remained silent and still, quietly watching as it clung timidly to the edge of the window, simply enjoying its delicate beauty, wondering just how it might have made such an unlikely journey. After a few moments, I pulled out my camera and took a photograph. I then looked down, for just a breath, to prepare my camera for another shot. When I looked up, the leaf was gone. I hadn’t even seen it go. It had flown away on another gentle breeze, just as quickly and quietly as it had arrived.
Enjoy every moment, my friends. Find the good in life, every day, and pull it close to your heart.
The Divine Spark
“Seven Hills” | Anthony Satori
“The poet existed among the cave men; he will exist among men of the atomic age, for he is an inherent part of man. The need for poetry… is a spiritual need, and it is through the grace of poetry that the divine spark lives forever in the human flint.”
— Saint-John Perse
There is a spiritual need for art, poetry, music, literature, etc. Dreamers and their dreams, creators and their creations, seekers and their insights, lovers and the acts which arise from love — these are the vessels of the divine spark of the human spirit.
The Universal Elements
“Horses in a Field” | Anthony Satori
“To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter… to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird’s nest or a wildflower in spring — these are some of the rewards of the simple life.”
— John Burroughs
The Great Harmony
“The Great Harmony” | Anthony Satori
“The way of the creative works so that each thing receives its true nature and destiny and comes into permanent accord with the great harmony: this is what furthers and what perseveres.”
— I Ching
Cultivate Your Utopia
“Cultivate Your Utopia” | Anthony Satori
“Find joy and solace in the simple, and cultivate your utopia by feeling the Tao in every cubic inch of space.”
— Wayne Dyer
Soul Blossoming
“Soul Blossoming” | Anthony Satori
“Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature.”
— Gerard De Nerval
Walking on Water
“Walking on Water” | Anthony Satori
If you are a biologist, you see variations of life everywhere. If you are a chemist, you see chemical reactions everywhere. If you are an artist, you see beauty everywhere. We choose our filters and we cultivate our lenses, and what’s amazing is the Universe seems perfectly content to accommodate our expectations.
So choose your filters carefully — they play a significant role in the creation of your world.
