Sacred Art
Sacred Art is a unique art form. It could be paintings, drawings, sculptures, poetry, dance, song. What they all have in common with each other is that they are connected to Spirituality. If I described my art, in all its forms, I would say they are esoteric and created in a state of Being that connects me to the Divine. My unique creative process form goes hand and hand with my spiritual path and energy work.
When I want to create, I go into prayer and meditation and a portal to receive joyful sparks of creativity is opened. I then I surrender to the state of co-creation with Divine Holy One. I hold myself open to Love and Illumination and Light and Creativity that comes in. And also, to the spirit and energy of the paint, the brushes, the paper, the water that I am employing. I am the joyous moving part as a bridge between this physical manifestation and spirit.
I sit in this state and then a feeling or a seed of an idea comes, and I begin to visualize, and the creation starts to grow and glow and an expression of creativity, is breathed out to spin its own form of reality.
And at some point, of this process, and I fall in love with the creation, as I know our Holy One falls in love with us, time and time again. The creative expression– be it a painting or a poem or the beating of our hearts, is an expression of the Holy One and love.
Sometimes the creative spark that appears is a color or a note or a brushstroke or a movement flowing in from Holy One’s creative field that I celebrate upon arrival in my spirit and body.
The creations I have birthed in my life are to me like children, birthed from my soul, in an expression of love and creativity, both of us in a union of Love. An expression of Love living in the canvas and in my heart and in the Creative Field of the Multiverse. The visions whirl around in a cosmic womb of outcomes, colliding and dancing and blending until there is a Big Bang of a creation!
In the creative process, we can access the Holy Womb of the Divine Feminine, then hold an idea, the energy, the Light, deep within our spirit and body, like a child in our womb. After a creative incubation within, there is an outpouring where the action can be expressed to the external world in words, music, art, or any creative endeavor. In this manifested form, the artist responds, yet again; internalizing creation like the sacred dragon eating its own tail, the phoenix dying and being born again. The flow becomes an alchemical cycle, moving thru a sacred doorway of the golden mean spiral in constant movement between inner and outer worlds.
The visions once living inside of me are now a beautiful expression of love on a canvas, full of its own state of being, its own energy….out here. Yet we are one, in a creative expression, a union of Love. A work of art lives in unity with its creator, like the union of a mother and child, like union of the Divine and us.
Being a creative and bringing something here in this reality helps me to understand, if even in a small way, the way that Holy One creates all the zillions of particles that exist on all the many unnamed levels and how exquisite and loved that energy is. I feel I know this because I love all my creations that way.
The arts were and still are a transmitter of information, transformation, and spirituality. But know that creativity appears in many forms in our lives –parenting, praying, accounting, dressing, driving, sports, running, eating and so many more. Creativity is a spark to ignite our flame for life. It is the transformational spark that the Holy One uses to ignite the outbreath ~~with Love and Life and Joy in everything that exists so that we can feel in every cell of our spirit how we were creatively and lovingly conceived The Holy Creator.
Quote from Dalai Lama
"...someone who meditates on their heart center and sends love and light to others emits an amazing 100,000 photons per second. That is 5000 times more than the average human being. Numerous studies have also shown that when these photons are infused with a loving and healing intent, their frequency and vibration increases to the point where they can literally change matter, heal disease, and transform negative events.
Ten minutes of meditating on compassion, on kindness for others, and you will see its effects all day. That’s the way to maintain a calm and joyous mind.”
From "The Book of Joy: Lasting Happiness in a Changing World" by the Dalai Lama
