For the more natural aspect of transcendentalism, I chose this picture of Walden Pond at sunset. Henry David Thoreau believed that God is in all nature, just as all nature is in God.

In this image, a person meditates underneath a Bodhi   tree. Transcendentalism is also very spiritual and believes in divinity of nature. There is no definite God but more of a spirit of nature that belongs in everyone's soul.

Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops

IS reform needed? Is it through you?
The greater the reform needed, the greater the personality you need
to accomplish it.

You! do you not see how it would serve to have eyes, blood,
complexion, clean and sweet?
Do you not see how it would serve to have such a Body and Soul, that
when you enter the crowd, an atmosphere of desire and command
enters with you, and every one is impress'd with your
personality?

O the magnet! the flesh over and over!
Go, dear friend! if need be, give up all else, and commence to-day to
inure yourself to pluck, reality, self-esteem, definiteness,
elevatedness;
Rest not, till you rivet and publish yourself of your own
personality.

-Walt Whitman, To A Pupil
