Nature Mysticism (Dancing With The Sun) Poem by Genova Maaa my mother

All veritable and first hand apprehensions
of the Divine obtained by the use of symbols
are activities of the illuminated mind.

To see God in nature, to attain a radiant
consciousness of the otherness
of natural things, is the simplest
and commonest form of illumination.

Those who experience an overpowering
apprehension of the infinite life
immanent in all living things
they live in „nature mysticism".

(Rudolf Otto defined nature mysticism as 'the sense of being immersed in the oneness of nature, so that man feels all the individuality, all the peculiarities of natural things in himself. He dances with the motes of dust and radiates with the sun; he rises with the dawn, surges with the wave, is fragrant with the rose, rapt with the nightingale: he knows and is all being, all strength, all joy, all desire, all pain in all things inseparably) '.
