"True revolution will not happen on the streets. True revolution will start in changing our minds and will manifest in accessing the wisdom lying beyond our minds. And that is where art is coming from. Cherish it, spread it, get inspired by it. When all the false beliefs will finally collapse, art will still be here, more present and shiny than ever.”
“People always ask me the same questions: “Do you make enough money to live off your paintings? How much time a given painting has taken you to finish? How long have you been painting?”
This kind of questions only reflects how conditioned we became by our society and its illusory needs. How very much we lost the connection with our true essence, our abundant and all-present source.”
“I would rather be asked: “Why do you paint? How do you feel when you paint? If you were to choose one message you would like to communicate with your art, what would it be?””
“Painting is my way to manifest the beauty of Creation. Painting is my gateway to Presence, the narrow door which takes me beyond the thinking process and ego, its constant dissatisfaction, projection into future or past. Painting is my teacher of unconditional Love, forgiveness & compassion. It is only in a space of no desire, no mind goal, no purpose other than to express who I really am, that a beautiful art can be created. Painting is teaching me to be authentic and drop all the fake roles I learned to play along the way, one after another.”
“Once a friend of mine asked me: “Do you really think that your meditation practice can help this world?”
Not only that it does help, it is literally the only thing that can truly resolve the myriad of problems that humanity is facing nowadays. If we keep the same egoistic mindset, no amount of money or medicine can heal the wounds we continuously inflict on each other and on this planet. We will continue being outside perpetrators of our inside unhappiness.
There is no problem in the entire Universe. The only problem exists in human mind. By learning how to dis-identify from our mind, how to use mind wisely instead of being used by it, how to keep it still, we will see miracles transform this world so quickly that humanity will literally rise from hell to heaven in blink of one generation.
One person can change the world. Indeed, this has always been the case.
Be the change you want to see in the world. Be light. Be Love. And whatever you do -meditate.
