The more I look for the source of "that energy," the easier it is to overlook all the peaceful items on life’s menu. The way that life appears directly depends on how I look at "it."
CROSSING A WINTRY NEW ENGLAND COMMONS – "Nature"
Standing on the bare ground, – my head bathed by the blithe air, and uplifted into infinite space, all mean egotism vanishes. I become a transparent eye-ball. I am nothing. I see all. The currents of the Universal Being circulate through me; I am part and particle of God by Ralph Waldo Emerson
My experience of creativity is that whenever any of us allows ourselves to drop the idea of how something “should” be done and open to how nothing has to be done to solve a problem, or arrange a room, etc. we are creative. We don’t need to be writing a song, or a poem or painting a picture. Whenever we drop our ideas about doing anything, when we step aside and open to “nothingness” allowing creative energy to take over we are experiencing creativity. At least that is how I experience it, as an energy.
Remembering how empty my house was when I moved in (total nothingness) and noticing how that nothingness emerged in a plethora of creativity! I love closing my eyes and then Opening them in my living area with they eyes of innocence. It is an explosion of beauty! Creativity emerging from nothingness. It’s as simple as that!
Totally Keshav, nothingness holds everything for Creatives to bring forward. Amen.
Without bias or direction or limits lies expansiveness, breath, joy.
A whole other meaning for the word thoughtless. My experience is that in not knowing lies endless possibilities.
There is a part of me that is totally aware of all the ways I belittle myself. All it wants me to do is relax and let go of everything I think I know, and fall in love with the unknown (the one thing I cannot think).
