Duality United

I love to capture reflection photos such as this one. Here, I experimented by looking into the water and snapping the photo upside down. I moved to portray different textures and I sat and waited for the sun to rise in order to add a variety of lighting to the scene.


All of my playing with the camera amounted to one realization.

This particular landscape lent credence to my philosophy of “regardless how you look at the people and things around us, we are all a mirror of the same all encompassing Divine Being.” The beauty of creation is ever-present to remind us of our eternal bond and interdependence on each other. We need nature to supply our food and water and we need each other to share in the experience of life.

Nothing fruitful can be gained by going it alone. Our reflection will always be looking back at us through the eyes of the Creator, herself. The drive for independence is a long solo journey into death. But the drive for harmonious interdependence is the beginning of eternal life.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

“Duality united is the balancing of all polarities into perfect oneness.” tc
