Beauty Baunty

Good morning!

Just before I left home, I watched the beginning part of the TV program “Today’s Close-up,” featuring natural farming. The produce, grown without chemicals or fertilizer, is now exported to other countries and sells well even at three or four times the price of commonly available produce.

It sells well because people like safe, beautiful, tasty produce. Here we see a big beautiful mum at the altar, amaryllis on the radiator, and other flowers in front of or around the Buddha statues.

Lilies in the field, lotuses in the pond, a flower held up naturally – all bring up sublimity and a smile because of the truth, beauty, goodness, and holiness of the wholesome whole: systemic, sustainable, safe, simple, saving.

They are unparalleled with and unreachable by the power pomp of artificial, arbitrary dynasties, empires, and civilizations that go against a natural, truthful, cyclical system and create all kinds of problems and sufferings.
