To My Neighbor

I lift you higher,
lift you out
of your body cells
stuffed with anxiety
of your past -
an evil load that smells.

I'll fill each cell
with love and joy
that makes the
angels dance.
You'll glide through earthly
filth and stench -
a spiritual trance.

From your youth filled eyes,
your hands
and feet,
a holy peace shall flow,
so you and I
be filled with grace -
let us be still
and know.

William Hermanns
[P527]

Seelentränen

Seelentränen sind Gedichte,
rot mit Herzblut aufgeschrieben,
tiefem Menschenleid zum Ruhm,

Lies sie still in reinem Lichte,
unbeschattet,
frei von Trieben:
Du betrittst ein Heiligtum.

Wilhelm Hermanns
[G001]

The Einstein-Hermanns Foundation

1982 -1990

In 1982 William Hermanns founded the Einstein-Hermanns Foundation with Kenneth Norton and Ulf Sjödin, a postdoctoral medical student from Sweden studying at the time at Stanford University. Hermanns' book Einstein and the Poet - In Search of the Cosmic Man was published the next year, 1983, by Branden Press. This attracted interest in the World Youth Friendship Parliament by youth. The Foundation purchased Villa Muramaris near the old Hansa League city of Visby on the Swedish island of Gotland for a site to house the Parliament, and in 1988 the World Youth Friendship Parliament came into being with its first session of youth participants from around the world.

Some of the writings in this last decade of William Hermanns life were addressing the mission of the Foundation: To Change the Heart of Man.

“ We must change the heart of man.” Albert Einstein, in Einstein and the Poet – In Search of the Cosmic Man by William Hermanns (Branden Press, 1983, p. 143

One essay, Einstein's Legacy, can be seen on this website. It is an open letter to youth, inspiring for all ages. The baton is passed.

The Foundation unfortunately lost the property due to the inability to raise adequate funding. The founder died in April 1990 and the Foundation was closed.
