. . . . . . . Unclasp it like jewels, the gold still hot from your body. Empty your basket of figs. Spill your wine. That hard nugget of pain, I would suck it, cradling it on my tongue like the slick seed of pomegranate. I would lift it tenderly, as a great animal might carry a small one in the private cave of the mouth. Excerpt: Basket of Figs ~ Ellen Bass poets.org/poem/basket-figs

Fechner on a Summer day

Fechner’s plato.stanford.edu/entries/fechner personal, intuitive feel for the plant-soul is abundantly evident throughout his writing. One finds passionate and poetic words, such as the following: I stood one on a hot summer’s day before a pool and contemplated a water-lily which had spread its leaves evenly over the water and with an open blossom was basking in the sunlight. . . . It seemed to me that nature surely would not have built a creature so beautiful, and so carefully designed for such conditions, merely to be an object of idle observation. . . . I was inclined rather to think that nature had built it thus in order that all the pleasure which can be derived from bathing at once a sunlight and in water might be enjoyed by one creature in the fullest measure. ~ Page 147 -o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o . . . When a Buddhist becomes enlightened, he or she remains in this world. The image of a beautiful lotus blossom floating atop of grimy, mucky pond conveys symbolically the Buddhist perception of life in this world. ~ Page 91 Excerpt: “When Religion Becomes Evil” ~ Author” Charles Kimball
