“The flowers depart when we hate to lose them;

The weeds arrive while we hate to watch them grow”– Dogen 

“But beyond and above this intellectual utility of Art, there is a higher use, the noblest of all, its service to the growth of spirituality in the race….Spirituality is a wider thing than formal religion and it is in the service of spirituality that Art reaches its highest self-expression. Spirituality is a single word expressive of three lines of human aspiration towards divine knowledge, divine love and joy, divine strength, and that will be the highest and most perfect Art which, while satisfying the physical requirements of the aesthetic sense, the laws of formal beauty, the emotional demand of humanity, the portrayal of life and outward reality, as the best European Art satisfies these requirements, reaches beyond them and expresses inner spiritual truth, the deeper not obvious reality of things, the joy of God in the world and its beauty and desirableness and the manifestation of divine force and energy in phenomenal creation….Therefore Art has flowed in two separate streams in Europe and Asia, so diverse that it is only now that the European aesthetic sense has so far trained itself as to begin to appreciate the artistic conventions, aims, and traditions of Asia. Asia’s future development will unite these two streams in one deep and grandiose flood of artistic self-expression perfecting the aesthetic evolution of humanity….Art can express eternal truth, it is not limited to the expression of form and appearance…All human activity reaches its highest and noblest when it succeeds in bringing body, heart, and the mind into touch with spirit…What Nature is, what God is, what man is can be triumphantly revealed in stone or on canvas.” – ‘The National Value of Art’, Sri Aurobindo

“Why are there beings at all, instead of Nothing?”
― Martin Heidegger, Introduction to Metaphysics      

Stillness mirrors ecstasy

The gamma ray pulsars spinning prodigiously

Sending signals back in a loop

Sculpting in time

Out of wood and stone

Images or forms that vibrate with celestial beauty

Through an interlocutory medium

Plastic and sensory

Intuitively mobile

Movements of the discreetness of matter

That are felt by thoughts

And hearts connecting to stillness in nature

Originating the playful dance of Ganesha

Over nano fibers in the torus stretching to the origin in the omniverse

Intelligent circuits coded in sound

Giving rise to Skills – Spatio-Kinetic-Integrated-Language-Levels (both Verbal/Non-Verbal communicative techniques)

That present humanity must develop

As the tendency of the highest mind to break optical illusions

And become only the photon to be sensed by the Void

Swallowed by the gravity in the black hole pool

To be on the other side (Imaginative Hyper-connective Vessels – Frinctuon of Adi Chinatamani Stone)

Leaving Hawkings’ super-translations as a trace on the event horizon

Though with low resolution

For the phenomenal world to read

And ponder upon…
