 The painting on the cover of this issue, Gate of Heaven (1984), is by Dutch artist Alice Buis.  Buis's paintings reveal the oneness of each of us and the surrounding world.  She relates this in symbols which are instinctive rather than traditional.  "Painting gives me an enormous joy, energy and meditative silence, says Buis.  This visionary image is available through Great Path Publishing. 800-858-5063.
