" That in which the sun rises and in which it sets, that which is the source of all the powers of nature and of all the senses, that which nothing can transcend- that is the immortal self. What is within us is also without -
what is without is also within."
The Upanishads
As members of the human race, we are both parents and children. We witness the passing of family and friends, and are affected by wonder, trauma, and the laws of physics at work on beaches and in hospital rooms. There are irrepressible forces over which our intellects are powerless; some are quiet, some are invasive, yet it is the pervasive and ephemeral nature of these forces that form the quality of our lives.
It is contact, resistance and flow.
