A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in itself a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security.

Albert Einstein
(German Nobel Prize winner and founder of modern physics, 1879-1955)

come with me on a journey
to the source of the creative power of all nature and the inspiration of all art
where tiny seashells, feather light ferns, and gigantic galaxies spiral in graceful union
and rivers, arteries, crystals, neurons and trees replicate themselves with remarkable symmetry
where Shakespeare sees there is much ado about nothing, Yo Yo Ma plays his cello and Klimt discovers gold
termites build architectural masterpieces. networks generate themselves with mysterious mathematical regularity.
and the same wave patterns made by wind in the sand are found in the movement of electrons and the illuminating dance of light on earth
