I don't know if we can ever completely re-establish the original harmony that once existed between man and the universe, but it's something, I think, that instinctively calls each of us. I'm inclined to think that most of the world's cherished spiritual words—"salvation," "enlightenment," "awakening," "nirvana," etc.—simply point to the "original harmony" of which Anatole France speaks.Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03959953035812596907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4002454922784880258.post-90799871784832545592013-01-01T08:49:41.564-05:002013-01-01T08:49:41.564-05:00Thanks, DOMINIC, and Happy New Year as well to you...Thanks, DOMINIC, and Happy New Year as well to you and your family.
