In this excerpt from walden by henry david thoreau, what can be inferred about where transcendentalist thinkers searched for divinity?

every morning was a cheerful invitation to make my life of equal simplicity, and i may say innocence, with nature herself. i have been as sincere a worshipper of aurora as the greeks. i got up early and bathed in the pond; that was a religious exercise, and one of the best things which i did. they say that characters were engraven on the bathing tub of king tchingthang to this effect: "renew thyself completely each day; do it again, and again, and forever again." i can understand that. morning brings back the heroic ages. i was as much affected by the faint hum of a mosquito making its invisible and unimaginable tour through my apartment at earliest dawn, when i was sitting with door and windows open, as i could be by any trumpet that ever sang of fame. it was homer's requiem; itself an iliad and odyssey in the air, singing its own wrath and wanderings. there was something cosmical about it; a standing advertisement, till forbidden, of the everlasting vigor and fertility of the world. the morning, which is the most memorable season of the day, is the awakening hour.
a) government and society
b) nature and humanity
c) religious tradition and doctrine
d) family and friends
