THE GREAT RABBIT

En gang kalte vi vår noble, inderlige og mystiske eksistens for "det store". Siden den gang har vi utviklet oss, våre tanker og bevissthet har forandret seg. Men hva er det som gjør at vi fremdeles insisterer på å kalle den "det store"?

Once we called our noble, profound and mysterious existence "The Great". Since then, we have moved with the times; our thought and consciousness have changed. And yet, what makes us persist in calling it "The Great"?
