W005 Uluru at Sunrise - 1
W005 Uluru at Sunrise - 1

1994.6
Northern Territory, Australia
Canon A-1 35 mm SLR, Fujichrome 100 film

The first ray of sun hit the rock of Uluru, the holy ground of the aboriginal Australians, while the sun itself was still below the horizon if you were at the ground level.

Their aboriginal faith could be traced back to their time of their arrival more than 60000 years ago, long before any extant religions of today started to emerge on the valleys of Tigris, Euphrates, Nile, Indus, Yellow River, etc. Its mere existence to this day manifests its greatness. And yet they built no temple, no altar to Heaven, no convent, wrote no holy script. For the beginning of their people, they call it ‘Dream Time’. The spirits of their ancestor have eyes and ears, but no mouth. Criticism or remarks are thus not appreciated. Their history (or prehistory) affords us to evaluate the outcome of an alternative evolutionary path and compare it to ours rooted on Eurasian Continent.

By the way, the aboriginal Australian flag is of red sky, black earth, and yellow solar disc in between: sunrise over Australian Continent.
