The Universe Within: One With Nature

This is the fifth episode of The Universe Within series. This initiative shares quotations from the Baha’i Writings with artists around the world and the end result is a multi-media exploration of an elevated idea.

In this episode of the series, artists from diverse walks of life visualize the ways in which they perceive and connect with nature.

The quotations sourced from the Bahaʼi Writings for this episode include:

“… the rays of the Sun of Truth are shed upon all things and shining within them…”

“This endless universe is like the human body… in the same way that the parts, members, and organs of the human body are interconnected… so too are the parts and members of this endless universe connected with, and spiritually and materially influenced by, one another.”

“We cannot segregate the human heart from the environment outside us and say that once one of these is reformed everything will be improved. Man is organic with the world. His inner life moulds the environment and is itself also deeply affected by it.”

You can find all episodes of The Universe Within on its YouTube channel.
