The jubilant circle of flying figures above, with a noiseless beating of invisible wings, keep eternity going on as unending melody, a homage of the spirits of the air to the secret of the earth, which blossoms up plant-like as god and goddess, and reclines in its absorption, in which the passing of youth and the passing of beauty are eternally present as that which passes, that is, which has life. - [Previous: c8.208](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.kramrisch-1933.c8.208) - [Next: c8.210](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.kramrisch-1933.c8.210) - [Up: c8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.kramrisch-1933.c8) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.kramrisch-1933.c8.209](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.kramrisch-1933.c8.209) · Pramāṇa
