Bono´s scarf



Bono takes advantage of his presentations (either with the band or alone) to promote what he calls "his other job".During the inauguration party in the Lincoln Memorial we could see him wearing a very nice scarf. Obviously it was an Edun exclusive product. Fans went mad in the net to try to find "Bono´s scarf"...Well now here it is at "inaugural price"...


"Our new Poem Scarf, made in Kenya of 100% Organic Cotton, is now available at a special "inaugural" price. Plus, all Natural color tees in our EDUN LIVE Basics collection are now 50% off through February. If you haven't yet tried these certified organic tees made grow to sew in Uganda, now's the perfect time!

With all its eyes the natural world looks out into
the Open. Only our eyes are turned backward,
and surround plant, animal, child like traps, as
they emerge into their freedom.
We know what is really out there only from the
animal's gaze; for we take the very young child
and force it around, so that it sees objects--not the
Open, which is so deep in animals' faces. Free
from death. We, only, can see death; the free animal
has its decline in back of it, forever, and God in
front, and when it moves, it moves already in
eternity, like a fountain.
Never not for a single day, do we have before us
that space into which flowers endlessly open.


Rainer M. Rilke, "The Eighth Elegy"
