Poetry is knowledge, salvation, power, abandonment. An operation capable of changing the world, poetic activity is revolutionary by nature; a spiritual exercise; it is a means of interior liberation. Poetry reveals this world; it creates another.
Octavio Paz, quoted in Bruce McEver’s essay “Poetry: A Bridge to the Sacred,” from the current winter issue: “Many Paths, One Truth.”

About

Avatar A parabola is one of the most dynamic forms in nature. It is the curve of a bowl, the path of a ball soaring upward and down to earth again. The founder of this magazine decided it was a good name for a journal devoted to the search for meaning, which often goes outward, then back home again along a different path.

More than thirty-five years later, PARABOLA does what other magazines and media cannot. Four times a year, we explore one of the timeless themes of human existence, drawing on wisdom from the world’s traditions, ways, and art. At PARABOLA, we further understanding, peace, and tolerance one reader at a time. .
