Freedom, Himalayas, India, 2016

Nature, in its purest essence, offers us an opportunity – to reflect on the path we have taken, to purify ourselves, and to rise above.

The captivating and mystical profile of the Himalayas, the birthplace of the Ganges, stands in stark contrast to the hurried pace of modern life and to the slow, eternal flow of the sacred waters of a river as ancient as the earliest civilisations.

I would like Nicolaj Pennestri’s marvellous images, together with the sutras of Master Anand, to accompany us on an ideal journey: the journey each of us should undertake in the attempt to understand the true meaning of our existence.
