Aborigines, Songlines and Love: Marc Gafni

Listen to a conversation in travel writer Bruce Chatwin’s wonderful book The Songlines:

“Aboriginals could not believe the country existed until they could see it and sing it — just as, in the Dreamtime, the country had not existed until the Ancestors sang it.”

“So the land,” I said, “must first exist as a concept in the mind? Then it must be sung? Only then can it be said to exist?”

“True.”

“In other words, ‘to exist’ is ‘to be perceived?’”

“Yes.”

Bruce Chatwin, The Songlines

Aboriginal traditions in Australia, the Hebrew mystics, Quantum Physics, a modern travel writer and the biblical myth

All come together and and remind us of the powerful spiritual truth; Love=Perception=Creation
