St. Jacob's Chapel, Auerberg
2010
There is no better way to understand that God exists than to watch to such a wonderful scenery and to contemplate the beauty of nature. There is no better way to pray than to sit in front of the universe and realize how wonderful it is this round tiny planet. There is no better way to listen to inner voice than to hear the sound of silence in a small quite room. There is no better way to find yourself than to feel your body protected by a thick stone wall and covered by a roof in massive oak wood and heavy dark bronze. There is no better way to feel in peace with the world than to watch through a round window and to let you view fade beyond the horizon. There is no better way to believe in love than to sit alone, to watch out of the round window and to embrace everything with your heart and your mind. There is not a better way to believe in a supreme Entity than to meditate in front of a small cross surrounded by old oak trees. There is no better way to trust in a prosperous future than to be here to dedicate a chapel to St. Jakob.
