>You cannot become conscious in the pure spirit until you live within yourself your eternal life!
Let that sink in!
The 'silver thread' is our imagination, the faculty of our free will. Through the feminine, the Immaculate Conception if you will, we realize the Assumption that transcends gravity and the animal in which we live.
It is interesting to note that Hortus Conclusus, a term familiar with the cultivation of cloistered medieval medicinal gardens, refers to the Virgin Mary, so looking forward to reading The Path of the Woman.
What a beautiful, enlightening read this is. Many thanks and blessings.
Thanks to you. And you are the first person I have encountered who also knows that in also noted on the description of Botticelli's "The Virgin Adoring the Sleeping Christ Child" in the National Gallery of Scotland in Edinburgh.
Yes, and I imagine you may have seen some wonderful hortus conclusus during your great trip to Scotland this year. The Annunciation is often depicted as a hortus conclusus with so much relevant and beautiful symbolism of the sacraments.
Many years ago I worked at the Cloisters Medieval Gardens Enclosed, Fort Tryon, NY working with rare medieval medicinal plants of the materia medica.
A wonderful book on the subject of Scottish gardens is titled "Early Scottish Gardens: A Writer's Odyssey" by Sheila Mackay.
Thanks I will consider that. Will definitely let you know how I go and probably might ask you some questions from time to time as well. Hope that will be ok.
Yes, certainly. Questions are fine. If you order the book be sure to request the Three Sages discount.

Wonderful. Thank you and blessings. I am working now with elderberry and rosemary. Elderberry, of course, is a Native American healing plant.
Thank you for putting this up Richard. I have decided to take up your suggestion to study him in earnest!
That's good! Let me know how it goes. I suggest you take a look at getting the one-volume edition from Books to Light.
Thanks I will consider that. Will definitely let you know how I go and probably might ask you some questions from time to time as well. Hope that will be ok.
