St. Francis Preaching to the Birds (detail), Giotto di Bondone (1266-1337)
* * * *
NATURE AS MIRROR
Can  you feel the  spiritual ecology we’ve been talking about? If you live  in a fully connected  world, you’re saved every day, just by playing  your part. You are grabbed by  God, and you belong to this universe,  along with everything else. I was  recently feeling discouraged and  irritated, and I went out to my garden and  spotted a green “stick bug”  happily chewing on my flowers, almost completely  camouflaged next to  the stem. This bug’s simple but amazing existence  completely took away  all of my negativity. Life was again wondrous and  miraculous.
At  a recent  retreat I gave on the Scottish island of Iona—which was the  center point for  the diffusion of Celtic Christianity—the attendees  remarked how the Celtic  "knot" was found on most crosses, gravestones,  in manuscripts, and on  jewelry. It was apparently their  artistic way  of saying that all is connected, everything belongs, and all is  one in  God. They knew about ecosystems long before we did. ALL was held   together inside the divine knot that made it one.
T.S.  Eliot ends  his famous "Four Quartets" quoting Dame Julian, and saying  the same: “And  all shall be well and / All manner of thing shall be  well / When the tongues of  flame are in-folded / into the crowned knot  of fire.”
From Richard Rohr:  In the Footsteps of Francis: Awakening to Creation

«Domingo de Ramos», de Alonso de Bonilla
Vaya para este día el soneto «Domingo de Ramos», de Alonso de Bonilla (Baeza, c. 1567-Baeza, 1642), que ilustro con el fresco La entrada en Jerusalén de Giotto di Bondone, escena 26 de su Ciclo de la vida de Cristo en la Cappella degli Scrovegni (Padua). Más que de su intención, del cielo santola varonil capacidad movida,del nuevo Rey celebra la venida,formando sendas de uno y otro…

MWW Artwork of the Day (4/10/22) Giotto di Bondone (Florentine, 1267-1337) Life of Christ #10: Entry into Jerusalem (1304-06) Fresco, 200 x 185 cm. Cappella Scrovegni (Arena Chapel), Padua
Around 1305 Giotto executed his most influential work, the painted decoration of the interior of the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua. This scene here has a solemn narrative tone. Accompanied by his disciples, Christ enters Jerusalem mounted on an ass. The people come to meet him in front of the city gate -- we can recognize the Golden Gate on the right of the painting. To honour their Lord, some of them spread their clothes out on the ground. Giotto plainly demonstrates how events are progressing through the various stages of disrobing on the one side, and the movement of the donkey on the other. Movement and counter-movement give us the origin and the end of the procession.
You can see all of Giotto's frescos in this MWW gallery/album: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.458364304268944&type=3
