@BrianZahnd Refreshingly dynamic, that Jesus image - echoing a meeting, this morning, with Cynthia Bourgeault's eulogy for Bruno Barnhart. As such, it would good, also, to see more Easter images describing a world resurrection indivisibly including the more-than-human world. #OrthodoxEaster

As he wrote perceptively in his The Future of Wisdom (p. 186), “The wisdom of Christianity does not find itself quite at home among the sapiential traditions of the world.” In contrast to that great upward thrust of the perennial philosophy, “the unitive wisdom that has become manifest in Christ disappears into – more boldly we might say, metamorphoses into – an immanent historical dynamism that transforms all of created reality.”
