For a moment, the first idea”

Belief in an immaculate beginningAnd sends us, winged by an unconscious will,
To an immaculate end.</p

Recreation (1919)
Context: Of all the joys of life which may fairly come under the head of recreation there is nothing more great, more refreshing, more beneficial in the widest sense of the word, than a real love of the beauty of the world... to those who have some feeling that the natural world has beauty in it I would say, Cultivate this feeling and encourage it in every way you can. Consider the seasons, the joy of the spring, the splendour of the summer, the sunset colours of the autumn, the delicate and graceful bareness of winter trees, the beauty of snow, the beauty of light upon water, what the old Greek called the unnumbered smiling of the sea.
“To love and to be loved is the greatest happiness.”
Chinmayananda Saraswati (1916–1993) Indian spiritual teacher
