Summits of mountains - abodes of gods

11/17/2015

Just as sages isolate themselves in deserts, caves or in the mountains so as to find silence and peace, so nature spirits take refuge in places as yet undisturbed or unsullied by humans. In most mythologies, mountains are said to be the abode of the gods. This can be seen as symbolic, for the image of a summit is always associated with the divine world. But it is also a reality. Mountain summits are like antennae connecting earth and heaven. This is why very pure and powerful entities dwell in mountains, far from the bustle and disorder of humans. In the same way, the more we are able to rise to the highest peaks of spiritual mountains, the more we find silence within ourselves. In this silence, we discover the origin of things, we unite with the primary Cause and enter the ocean of divine light.
