Art and Meditation

Art is a form of creativity that knocks on our subconscious mind.

Result

The subconscious mind speaks to the conscious mind, and a beautiful piece is created.

This art could be displayed on canvas with colors or be written with beautiful and meaningful words.

This art is a form of meditation, where our inner self is dug into, and an artist or a writer expresses it in either form. His ego is set aside while he is trying to express himself.

When self pride is put on hold. The individual is in a reflective mode. He is in a contemplative state.

This state is a form of meditation.

Mantra for today: Creativity is the gateway to becoming ego-less.

This post truly reminds me of my husband, because he is so creative and has used this outlet in the past to calm himself almost similar to as you put it meditating. Seriously wonderful mantra today and have voted for you also!! :)

How do you get so many comments when the blog just came up on my screen? Weird. Anyway, I'm all for anything that shrinks ego and allows humility to grow. Love the mantra once again.
