Torch Cross

C. S. Lewis: "Nothing, I suspect, is more astonishing in any man's life than the discovery that there do exist people very, very like himself."

"The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship"  — William Blake

"A noiseless patient spider" by Walt Whitman

A noiseless patient spider

, 
I mark’d where on a little promontory it stood, isolated,

 
Mark’d how to explore the vacant vast surrounding, 

It launch’d forth filament, filament, filament, out of itself, 

Ever unreeling them, ever tirelessly speeding them. 

And you O my Soul where you stand

, 
Surrounded, detached, in measureless oceans of space,

 
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing, seeking the spheres to connect them,

 
Till the bridge you will need be form’d, till the ductile anchor hold,

 
Till the gossamer thread you fling catch somewhere, O my Soul.

"What is life without the radiance of love?"

— Friedrich Schiller

Rudolf Steiner:  "Let this Christmas tree, therefore, be a pledge that emblems of the most exalted and mighty may arise anew. Such symbols can emerge in our souls particularly when we feel the spiritual truths of the awakening I within our human souls, that intrinsic I which senses the spiritual bond from soul to soul and feels this to a heightened degree when human beings of noble intent work together."

At-one-ment 

Washed in the Blood of the Lamb are We

Awash in a Sonburst Sea

You—Love—and I—Love—and Love Divine:

We are the Trinity

You—Love—and I—We are One-Two-Three

Twining Eternally

Two—Yes—and One—Yes—and also Three:

One Dual Trinity

Radiant Calvary

Ultimate Mystery
