Greater Self

Arcimboldo13

Vortumnus (Vertumno) by 

Giuseppe Arcimboldo

From the Greater Self, in the Beginning, came Space.
From Space came air; out of Air, Fire; out of Fire,
Water, and from Water came Solid Earth. From Earth
arose all Living Plants and from them came Food.
The Body, composed of the Essence of Food, is the
Physical Aspect of the Greater Self.

– Taittriya Upanshad

A more accurate description than “100 percent natural whole-grain oats,” “plump raisins,” “sweet cranberries” and “crisp fresh apples” would be “oats, sugar, sweetened dried fruit, cream and 11 weird ingredients you would never keep in your kitchen.”

Bolivia Enshrines Natural World's Rights with Equal Status for Mother Earth:
