“For the True Artist, Spirit Everywhere”
Photograph by John Diamond, M.D.
The power of art is that it attracts – but first the subject must attract the artist. What to the casual eye is seen to be but a meaningless jumble on the street – quite unattractive – to the creative eye is phanic, from the root BHA, to shine, to glow, to blaze, to radiate.
The artist through his attracted activity causes you now to be attracted, to share his Experience of the apparently ordinary: to Behold the Spirit everywhere as everything, as everyone. The Sacred in the everyday.
For the true artist,
there is no ordinary
– but Spirit everywhere.
