Nature

In this story the author is speaking of how he goes into solitude not physically but mentally and experiences nature. He experiences the trees, the mountains, and the river. He feels that he becomes transparent in a way that he is like an eye ball or the wind. He is not there but still there, and that all things from the universe are circulating through his body. In a way he transcends into another world than the one that he is in. The transcendentalist believed in these types of things, because they thought that they could leave their body and become one with god. That’s what he thought he was doing as he stood in nature and experienced all of these things
