Thanksgiving to Aphrodite



Blessed Thou art, O Mother of the cosmos, and our gratitude to Thee is like the sky that has no bounds, like eternity that has no ending, like They Own beauty that no words could describe. For we thank Thee with every atom of our souls and bodies, O Aphrodite, holiest, sweetest, loveliest, most-blessed, most glorious, most loving Goddess of Love.

--Gleb Botkin, In Search of Reality, p. 40

Prayer to Aphrodite


O Aphrodite, gentle Goddess of Love and Beauty, Thou Who has conquered chaos and brought into the world truth, goodness and joy, help us to comprehend that truth, help us to learn that goodness, help us to partake of that joy, by granting us the ineffable bliss of Thy love.

--Gleb Botkin, In Search of Reality, p. 19
