Logo for the Salado Institute

The logo for the Institute symbolizes running water out of which rises body, mind and soul. The significance of water is one of the oldest and clearest interpretations in the whole field of mythology, so that the ancient Greeks could say that "the sea is the symbol of regeneration. From water comes life. All living things rise, like the sun from water, and sink into it again in evening." Salado Creek, whose spring-fed waters flow through the heart of our village, affects the life we live, the birds we see, the fish, the frightening floods and the calm evenings' reflected sun and moon. It is the ever-flowing water of life itself.
