In honor of the Fourth of July and the unalienable right of Freedom for All humankind, the Dali Bakery is reprinting a Dali prophecy written in 1942 concerning the Nativity of a New Idea and why the information concerning Gala's Grail is really, truly a Call to Courage. Because do we believe that love is for everyone? Or is it just for those who conform to the norm?

Nativity of a New World
by

Esquire Magazine
December, 1942

All new things that are born are produced out of elements already in being, and
the Nativity of the New World can be no exception, it must be the product of the
old world.

The sense that the new can only be the transformation of the old pervades Dali's
symbolic phantasy. His New World is the product of the physical America of
today, with its contours, canyons, deserts, geysers, redwood trees, and sloping
hills. The central individuals, a cowboy and a black man, worshiping at the luminous
center from which the future is to emerge, are genuine representatives of the
America of today. His painting, then, is both profoundly realistic and
inspiringly imaginative. His message is not in cipher, but revealed in the power
and sweep of a single overwhelming concept. But it may assist those studying its
specific symbols to understand that in Dali's intention, the crystal ball
represents the embryonic first gleamings of the next biological phase.

Birth is nature's optimism, hence the basis of man's faith. Without the
conviction that these anguished days are indeed creating the New World and
creating it from the flesh of present-day America, courage to meet these days
would be hard to muster. Dali's painting is pervaded by the strength of nature's
optimism. It is a call to courage.
