The mystery of our interrelatedness — Stephan Bodian

I found myself reflecting this morning on the mysterious and paradoxical way that the mystery of our interrelatedness — the timeless, radiant essence of what is — expresses itself in just the right forms to invite us, as human beings, to recognise and fall in love with it — that is, to fall in love with ourselves. Somehow, through some divine good fortune, we find ourselves surrounded by objects and experiences that appeal precisely to our primal need for certain colours, sounds, shapes, and smells.
