Human beings are each a microcosm. Living here on Earth, we breathe the rhythms of a universe that extends infinitely above us. When resonant harmonies arise between this vast outer cosmos and the inner human cosmos, poetry is born.”
The arts and culture function to revitalize and restore the human spirit and humanity itself. “Our planet is scarred and damaged, its life systems threatened with collapse . . . Modern civilization will be healthy only when the poetic spirit regains its rightful place”.
Quotes by Buddhist philosopher, poet and peacebuilder Daisaku Ikeda (1928 – 2023)
