But your solitude will be a hold and home for you even amid very unfamiliar conditions and from there you will find all your ways.

∆ Rainer Maria Rilke, from ‘Letters to a Young Poet’, tr. M. D. Herter Norton

And this world, they insist, is where we belong. This wider field of consciousness is our native land. We are not cabin-dwellers, born to a life cramped and confined; we are meant to explore, to seek, to push the limits of our potential as human beings. The world of the senses is just a base camp: we are meant to be as much at home in consciousness as in the world of physical reality.

∆ Rainer Maria Rilke, from ‘Letters to a Young Poet’, tr. M. D. Herter Norton

The home is where we are made, unmade, remade; it shapes how we live both within and outside its walls.

“If not in a literal sense in a figurative sense, for me home is somewhere that you take with you.”
