Sometimes dawn begins slowly and softly, gradually gathering momentum until it seems the fire of the heavens is flooding the earth with light. Snow covered peaks look like they are all aflame, and a billion snowflakes reflect the sun with almost blinding intensity.
Henry David Thoreau said, "All memorable events, I should say, transpire in morning time and in a morning atmosphere. The Vedas say, 'All intelligences awake with the morning.'"
The first light of the new day has a mystical and sacred quality that requires no religion to recognize.
