In another post, “World As Divine Symbol“, we devoted ourselves to the symbolic nature of the phenomenal world, that this world is essentially a symbol pointing us to something beyond itself, to something that stands behind and supports appearances, something itself not an appearance, and hence itself not subject to impermanence. If the world is … More The Symbolism of Solar System
What Do We Really Look Like? Well, we may think we look like this: But really, we always look like this: Don’t be too concerned with what you look like.
