From the publisher: "Utilizing the inspired paintings of Nicholas Roerich, heartfelt poetry and words of wisdom, we travel the distance from unconscious oneness and realization that the self is part of a much greater whole. Through exegesis, meditative writing, quotes and Roerich's compelling works, the author relates a spiritual message for our moment... The Peace Pilgrim Pictures is the sixth book collaboration of F. Gard Jameson and Dana C. White, both alumni of Pacifica’s Mythological Studies program. Published by Copper Cauldron, this book introduces readers to Nicholas Roerich, an early 20th century artist, mystic and influential political figure who after leaving Russia, emigrated to England, traveled to India, and settled in New York, where he constructed an amazing multi-story multi-purpose facility that served as home, studio, and gathering center for arts, students of the spiritual and cosmological exploration, and world politics. Three times nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, Roerich was a principal in redesigning the US One-Dollar bill to include the pyramid and the all-seeing eye of the Freemasons. The three spheres on Roerich’s Banner of Peace symbolize science, art, and religion: truth, beauty, and goodness. This publication takes the ten stages of the 12th century Ox-Herding pictures as a basis upon which to develop a meditative relationship with the art of Nicholas Roerich.". First Edition. Oversize Hardcover. Fine condition/Near Fine dust jacket. Illus. by Roerich, Nicholas (images by). 187pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.
