I have been watching David Attenborough’s TV program on the bowerbird. The male constructs a bower in which he carefully places very special objects to attract the female. To us, they seem so ordinary: leaves, bits of flowers, fungi, a piece of shell. And many others.
All so precisely placed within the structure of the bower. Should a rival alter the display, on his return he immediately notices and corrects. It must be just-so: his own expression unique, individual expression of what, if it were us, we would call love.
No matter
how many pictures
I take,
the tree’s love
is never diminished.Nature
is ever-abundant.Dr. Diamond has composed a large number of special therapeutic songs which he calls lilts. Like his original artwork and photography, his lilts are created with the specific intention of raising the Life Energy of the performer and his audience.
Oh, God
Dr. Diamond's short manifesto on art as egoless devotion, by those who feel so impelled by the Spirit: Altruistic, Soul-enriching, Bhakti-yoga, a union.
Dr. Diamond discusses the transformation of medicine into a more mechanical modality, with a corresponding loss in empathy, holistic thinking – and aesthetic sense!

But music, to me, seems to be the very opposite of musing, thinking.
Our word worship:
the ship means the state of,
and the wor the worth.So, basically, the worship is to invest the other with the state of being worthy.
