Could the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Maya, Inca, Aztec, Norse, Celts Khymer, and Native Americans have understood something fundamental - something we have lost?
James Lovelock has introduced us to the concept of planet Earth as a living organism. Now what about the million-times larger, seven-levelled energy-beaming Sun?
It was not science that branded solar religions as primitive and ignorant. “Wrong” thinking scientists were burned too.
Could “as above, so below” apply to our brains filled with a hundred billion sparking neurons and our galaxy filled with a hundred billion energy producing stars?
Might the tree be tickled by the ripple of a breeze; the volcano excited by its own eruption; the thundercloud proud of its lightning; the mountain sublime in its majesty?

Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are! Jane Taylor (1783 - 1824)
"The sun, with all those planets revolving around it and dependent on it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes as if it had nothing else in the universe to do." Galileo Galilei
"Our ancestors worshiped the Sun, and they were far from foolish. And yet the Sun is an ordinary, even a mediocre star. If we must worship a power greater than ourselves, does it not make sense to revere the Sun and stars?" Carl Sagan, in Cosmos
When I have a terrible need of - shall I say the word - religion, then I go out and paint the stars. Vincent van Gogh
Look on the rising sun: there God does live
And gives his light, and gives his heat away.
And flowers and trees and beasts and men receive
Comfort in morning joy in the noon day. William Blake, The Little Black Boy 1789
“In real worship, we do not just do ritualistic worship but we try to imbibe the qualities of the one we are worshipping.” Rig Veda
We must see that consciousness is neither an isolated soul nor the mere function of a single nervous system, but of that totality of interrelated stars and galaxies which makes a nervous system possible. Alan Watts (1915 - 1973)
Sun worship is fairly simple. There's no mystery, no miracles, no pageantry, no one asks for money, there are no songs to learn, and we don't have a special building where we all gather once a week to compare clothing. And the best thing about the sun, it never tells me I'm unworthy. Doesn't tell me I'm a bad person who needs to be saved. Hasn't said an unkind word. Treats me fine. So, I worship the sun. But, I don't pray to the sun. Know why? I wouldn't presume on our friendship. It's not polite. George Carlinvideo here
