Stillness & Sweet Golden Honey. ~ A Photographic Essay by Robert Sturman.

             

 

 

Mastery is a Quiet Path

…

Building a bridge between

Everything

and our own

Stillness.

…

…

Nothing outside of ourselves can be taken too seriously.

It is all a metaphor for the work being done within.

…

…

In our stillness, we cultivate golden honey

to sweeten up our perceptions,

enjoy our days,

and spread it all over the world.
