“Life rhythms felt in no matter what, become symbols of the whole...The creative force in man recognizes and records these rhythms with the medium most suitable to him, to the object, or the moment, feeling the cause, the life within the outer form. Recording unfelt facts by acquired rule, results in sterile inventory.”
Edward Weston

Talks and Writings of G. I. Gurdjieff
THE EVOLUTION OF MAN CAN BE TAKEN
AS THE DEVELOPMENT IN HIM of those powers and possibilities which never
develop by themselves, that is, mechanically. Only this kind of development,
only this kind of growth, marks the real evolution of man. There is, and there
can be, no other kind of evolution whatever.…
In speaking of evolution it is necessary to understand from the outset that no mechanical evolution is possible. The evolution of man is the evolution of his consciousness. And ‘consciousness’ cannot evolve unconsciously. The evolution of man is the evolution of his will, and ‘will’ cannot evolve involuntarily. The evolution of man is the evolution of his power of doing, and ‘doing’ cannot be the result of things which ‘happen.’
IN SEARCH OF THE MIRACULOUS, pp. 56, 58

At the entrance, my bare feet on the dirt floor,
Here, gusts of heat; at my back, white clouds. I stare and stare. It seems I
was called for this: To glorify things just because they are.
Czeslaw Milosz
The
Temple of the Sacred Family, one of the major symbols of the Roma district,
started being built in 1910 by the architect Manuel Gorozpe and the engineer
Miguel Rebolledo, and was sponsored by the Jesuit congregation. After a period
of inactivity, the Parrish was inaugurated on November 19 1925, date in which
its tower and clock were given their blessing.
This
temple reflects several styles fashionable in the early 20th Century,
among which we can find elements of the neo-Romanesque, neo-Gothic and eclectic
styles that manage to come together harmoniously in this place.
One
of the most outstanding aspects of this temple are its beautiful stained glass
windows, which were made by the Italian company Talleri, and in which we can
observe representations of different Bible passages and the mysteries of the
Christian faith. [mexicocity-guide.com]
