Love is…
“On the Water” | Anthony Satori

– Franklin P. Jones
Without Words
“Doves” | Anthony Satori
“Do not some of the most moving moments of our lives find us without words?”
– Marcel Marceau
The Source of Thought
“Sunlit Cave” | Anthony Satori
“Meditation is to dive all the way within, beyond thought, to the source of thought and pure consciousness. It enlarges the container, every time you transcend. When you come out, you come out refreshed, filled with energy and enthusiasm for life.”
– David Lynch
The Power to Make Happy
“Bloom” | Anthony Satori
“The Six Grandfathers have placed in this world many things, all of which should be happy. Every little thing is sent for something, and in that thing there should be happiness and the power to make happy. Like the grasses showing tender faces to each other, thus we should do, for this was the wish of the Grandfathers of the World.”
– Black Elk
Golden Moon
“Golden Moon” | Anthony Satori
“You may have noticed that everything we do is in a circle, and that is because the Power of the World always works in circles, and everything tries to be round. The sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are all the stars. The wind, in its greatest power, whirls. Birds make their nests in circles, because theirs is the same religion as ours. The sun comes forth and goes down again in a circle. The moon does the same, and both are round. Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle, and so it is with everything where power moves.”
– Black Elk
Atoms and Void
“Crème Brûlée and a Shot of Espresso” | Anthony Satori
“We think there is color, we think there is sweet, we think there is bitter, but in reality there are only atoms and void.”
– Democritus (c. 400 BC)
Thoughts and Dreams
“Tree and Yellow Flowers” | Anthony Satori
“I can never decide whether my dreams are the result of my thoughts, or my thoughts the result of my dreams.”
– D. H. Lawrence
Ten Thousand Lifetimes
“Figs” | Anthony Satori
“Truth cannot be borrowed. It can only be experienced directly. It is the fruit of exploration, suffering, and the direct encounter between one’s own spirit and reality – the reality of the present moment and the reality of ten thousand lifetimes.”
– Thich Nhat Hanh
The Beauty of Life
“Flower Burst” | Anthony Satori
“Peace is the beauty of life. It is sunshine. It is the smile of a child, the love of a mother, the joy of a father, the togetherness of a family. It is the advancement of man, the victory of a just cause, the triumph of virtue.”
– Menachem Begin
