“You're looking for purity, something that just isn't all garbled, someplace where you can feel the earth again, where you can feel what the wind feels like, where you can see the stars at night, and actually, not just look at little dots in the sky, but feel an energy from them.” FeelsLooksLittlesEarthNightHumanityEnergyStarsSkyWindBuddhismPurityDots Author:Frederick Lenz
“When you start your meditation, picture a beautiful blue sky without any clouds in it. Feel that your body is growing lighter.

“I don?t feel rejected by the sky. I?m a part of it- tiny, to be sure, but everything is tiny compared to that overwhelming immensity.” FeelsSkyTinyRejectionOverwhelmingRejectedImmensity Book:Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space Source: Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space
“Wilderness is not only a haven for native plants and animals but it is also a refuge from society. Its a place to go to hear the wind and little else, see the stars and the galaxies, smell the pine trees, feel the cold water, touch the sky and the ground at the same time, listen to coyotes, eat the fresh snow, walk across the desert sands, and realize why its good to go outside of the city and the suburbs. Fortunately, there is wilderness just outside the limits of the cities and the suburbs in most of the United States, especially in the West.” FeelsLittlesStatesStarsWaterRealizingWalksAnimalUnitedCitiesUnited StatesTreeSkyHavensWindColdLimitsPlantWestSmellSnowDesertSandNativeWildernessRefugeGalaxySuburbsPlaces To GoPlants And AnimalsCold WaterCoyotesPine TreesDesert SandFresh Snow Author:John Muir
“To lovers of the wild, these mountains are not a hundred miles away. Their spiritual power and the goodness of the sky make them near, as a circle of friends. ... You cannot feel yourself out of doors; plain, sky, and mountains ray beauty which you feel. You bathe in these spirit-beams, turning round and round, as if warming at a camp-fire. Presently you lose consciousness of your own separate existence: you blend with the landscape, and become part and parcel of nature.” IfsFeelsSpiritualSpiritLosesExistenceConsciousnessFireDoorsSkyLoversMountainGoodnessHundredUnityRoundsMilesCirclesLandscapeCampsRaysBeamMiles AwayParcelSpiritual PowerCircle Of Friends Book:Meditations of John Muir: Nature's Temple Source: Meditations of John Muir: Nature's Temple
