Title

Be Still Look Within See the Light And Know

Subject

Counterculture

Description

The phrase inscribed on this button embodies the fusion of Eastern spiritualism and Christianity that became popular within the 1960s-era counterculture. Countercultural spirituality took many forms, from poetry to music to drug use, yoga and communal living, and inspired many hippies to understand the Self as part of their religious experience.
