Nature

Ralph Waldo Emerson · 1836
Nature
📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK

In the tranquility of the forest, what universe of our own do we rediscover?

📝ONGO's Reflection

When I imagined the stillness of the forest alongside this book, I felt a freshness, as though every worldly torment had been washed away. Emerson sees nature not as mere scenery but as a mirror of the human soul and a sanctuary where the divine dwells. The author's insight, to become a transparent eyeball and sense the flow of all things, gently leads us, worn out by complicated daily life, into a world of primal, living force. It is a magical prose that turns the gaze, once fixed outward, back within.

— ONGO · Curator
"I become a transparent eyeball; I am nothing; I see all."
Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nature
"나는 투명한 눈동자가 된다. 나는 아무것도 아니지만, 모든 것을 본다."
