What is spiritual art?
Isn't it paintings of Angels and prophets or the artworks in churches?
I once thought so to. What else could it be right? The words are very specific after all. But when my friend introduced the concept to me he was quick to point out that it is perhaps the most or at least one of the most important concepts on the spiritual path to understand and pratically master in order to attain enlightenment.
Important note: Please excuse me for the messy structure of this text... It is and will continue to be a work in progress because im trying to compress much information. Giving it as much content as possible with as few words as possible.
What is art?
The beautiful use of words from a poem or other text that touches your heart
A pleasant voice, inviting body language, an energetic aura of joy experienced the moment you enter a room
Colors so intense and overwhelmingly beautiful and kind that you get a glimpse of heaven.
Pleasant sound or music piece which brings you close to all that feels beautiful
But it is also to work with anahata and to replace viceful emotions with subtle ones to create... art beyond words. Art that inspires, art that heals, art that makes people see and understand what and how love really feels. Art that brings you closer to love, is art of high quality.
Spiritual Art is subtle. Understanding this principle can dramatically improve an artwork. Da vinci grasped this principle very well when it came to drawing form. But! It can also be used whith colors, shading, perspective and meditation, all aspects of art not just drawing but also swimming, harmonious body language (which comes natrually to those who work with anahata). Keep anahata clean and you will shine like a sun.
How do you keep anahata clean?
Visualize a white light, feel it and see it... Let it shower your whole body including the anahata. If you haven't opened anahata yet, praticing spiritual art both as kindness towards others, yourself (through personal developement) and immersing yourself in beauty will speed up the process. Moving consciousness into heart center is also effective and if done correctly will be felt as if "moving physically" from the head to the chest.
The basic principle is as follows:
Air is lighter, less solid than rock.
Music:
A pleasant song can have several harmonious elements (favourable for harmonizing the inner state) but in it's entirety have almost no spiritual benefits. It is much better to look for a song or composition with the purpose of enhancing the inner state. In order to identify such kind of music, look for clarity, depth, bliss and subtlety. These four are good guidelines when it comes to drawing/painting aswell.
