Summary
Parabola's Summer 2004 issue:
Web of Life
The very word "cosmos" signifies that the universe itself is a living organism, unimaginably vast in its extent and in the depths of its purposes and intelligence--and in its beauty and, above all, in its goodness. And, according to [the great spiritual traditions], to know this universe, to know reality, it is necessary for a man or a woman to perceive it with more than the intellect alone. It is necessary to perceive it with the unique source of perception by which beauty and goodness can be perceived--with the depth and subtlety of the power of feeling. The power of feeling...must be joined to the genius of the intellect in order to know the nature of reality. --from "All Those Shining Worlds" by Jacob Needleman
