Buddhism: Nature is Like a Mirror
Nature is like a mirror. It remains still, but I move. It seems unchanged, yet I am constantly changing. The mirror of nature reflects my inner world, the essence of humanity, and the great, all-embracing of life itself. Only when we are connected to nature, engaged with nature, are we truly alive and vigorous. To really be alive, one must be under the sun, the moon, the shining stars and surrounded by the beautiful greenery and pure waters of the natural world.
