"A world without fairyland is like a night without stars ...
Fairies are to the world what the stars are to the poetry of the sky ”
"Poetry is what man has most divine in his mind; of what visible nature has most magnificent in images and most melodious in sounds! It is both feeling and sensation. , spirit and matter, and that is why it is the complete language, the language par excellence which grasps man by his whole humanity, idea for the spirit, feeling for the soul, image for the imagination, and music for the ear! "
(Alphonse de Lamartine)
"This is the role of poetry. It reveals, in the full force of the word. It shows naked, under a light that shakes off torpor, the surprising things that surround us and that our senses automatically recorded."
(Jean Cocteau)
The Enchantment
"Today our world is not happy.
We are in a society doomed to ugliness. It settles everywhere.
There is a failure of the mind in the ability to imagine the beauty of life ...
True beauty is the bearer of spirit and soul.
The enchantment cannot be conceived without the awareness which consists in "above all to love, to take care, to be amazed" ...
"You have to be consistent because this consistency is priceless. I manifest by my consistency the choice resulting from my free will which gives me full powers over my life and puts me in harmony with what I feel deep down. by myself."
Pierre Rhabi
The wonder
"When we speak of wonder, I think of beauty. It is the feeling that we have when we are touched by beauty, a value completely foreign to the world in which we live. We are not in a a world where, as with the ancient Greeks, we seek beauty. We seek efficiency ...
Beauty is what emotionally connects us to the deep harmony of the cosmos, which makes us a particle in relation to the whole, which makes us vibrate ...
We vibrate when we feel ourselves in harmony with the immensity of nature, but as we are cut off from it since we are married to technology, we lose the capacity to vibrate, to intoxicate ourselves with its beauty ..;
To cultivate this garden of wonder it is necessary to cultivate the garden of the soul ... For that the school and the parents should give this dimension to the small children; there should be a small garden for each kindergarten ... "
Jean-Marie Pelt
The Ecological Power ofWonder
"Wonder does not exclude lucidity"
"Wonder is a leaven of ecological responsibility"
"For the happiness of the present moment in its most generous simplicity, for its discreet and equally powerful movement of blooming of the mind and the heart, for its aspiration to celebrate harmony and, at the same time, to take awareness of the fragility of natural resources "...
Wonder as a source of elevation and wisdom:
"wonder immensifies the mind and expands the heart to infinity"
"For the Tibetan master Yongey Mingyour Rinpoche, to be amazed is to appreciate with gratitude the infinite unfolding of phenomena. It is the fresh gaze of a child who sees something for the first time. How wonderful to inspire again after having expired! To see the dawn rise another time, to be alive, to enjoy each instat which passes in the luminous transparency of his own spirit! even, with others, with the whole universe: wonder makes us come out of ourselves: it immensifies the mind and expands the heart to infinity. Wonder is spacious. It does not fragment, it does not classify, discriminate, add biased judgments to reality or any other mental fabrication; He lets the world appear as it is in its natural simplicity, the infinitely large as well as the infinitely small, the immensity of the starry sky like the path of u do not ant on a rock. Melt into the immensity of the sky, get lost in the maze of bark, disappear into the intimacy of a flower as Alice passes on the other side of the mirror and finds herself in Wonderland.
Wonder uplifts us: The joy and wonder of being in nature endures and grows as we experience it and arouses a feeling of wholeness which, over time, becomes a lasting feature of our temperament. Wonder uplifts us and invites serene, vast and open mental states into our inner landscape that engender a feeling of being in tune with the world. "
