Derived from the Indian Atharvaveda, one of the oldest books of mankind, Hymn to the Earth, forms part of the extensive Vedic scriptures of Hinduism. With its great veneration of both divinity and the natural world, the richness and beauty of its imagery, and the profundity of its thoughts, Hymn to the Earth continues to speak to us all these years later through its lively poetic movement. As Hermann Beckh says in the introduction:
In his extensive editorial commentary, Beckh (who translated the ancient text into German in 1934) explains how this document of primordial human civilization, originating well before the Christian age, contains much that is of significance to our present times. Indeed, it foreshadows, in veiled form, the Christ Mysteries.
This inspiring rendering in English by Alan and Maren Stott, which includes the whole of the enchanting hymn, captures the spirit of Hermann Beckh's acclaimed translation.
