Description
Continuing the series 'Circles of Light' this form of a Sunflower is drawn and painted on mulberry paper. I was impressed with the individuality of the tiny flowerets that make up the center, in ever expanding circles, which will become nourishing seeds. The petals radiate outward as do the rays of the sun. I chose the following quote from Thomas Merton..........................Today, Father, this blue sky lauds you. The delicate green and orange flowers of the tulip poplar tree praise you. The distant blue hills praise you, together with the sweet-smelling air that is full of brilliant light�I, too, Father, praise you, with all these my brothers,..We are all one silence, and a diversity of voices�To be here with the silence of Sonship in my heart is to be a center in which all things converge upon You. That is surely enough for the time being.
***
Hoy, Padre, ese cielo celeste te alaba. Las flores delicadas en verde y anaranjado del �rbol tulipero te alaban. Las colinas azules en la distancia, te alaban, juntos con el aire dulce perfumado lleno de luz brillante�Yo, tambi�n, Padre, te alabo, con todos estos mis hermanos,..Somos todos un silencio, y un diversidad de voces�Estar aqu� con el silencio de ser Tu Hijo en mi coraz�n es ser un centro en lo cual todas las cosas re�nen sobre Ti. Seguramente eso es suficiente por ahora.
�What is� the son of man that Thou dost care for him? Yet Thou hast made him a little lower than God�� Psalm 8:4-5
�pienso:�?Que es el ser humano? �Por qu� lo recuerdas y te preocupas por el? Pues lo hiciste casi como un dios�� Salmos 8:4-5
