Where the mind,
spirit and body merge with the world around and
the intuitive truth becomes manifest. The secret
to capture the amalgam of so many lives lived
in different times. And in those moments of meditation
one becomes the perfect screen—a mirror;
non-judgmental, a pure reflection with one’s
experience of years of knowledge and vision. The
relevant and irrelevant separate to merge again.
The feelings get expressed through physical reality,
and intuitive energy comes to play through the
image. But these whispers of Nature are not for
all, only for those who make themselves available,
mentally, physically and spiritually; expression
takes a physical form and one can see the whispers
translated into images.
One cannot separate the form from the sensuous.
Apart from its physical and emotional aspects,
even the birth of a child is sensuous act. Different
elements of life and Nature can begin to tickle
or touch one. It's the effect of much contemplation.
At times, different meditations merge into one
and, at times, they gather in a single space as,
simply, a spontaneous collation of circumstances.
It is the unconscious past melted with the present
which reflects the future. The unknown and the
unseen get revealed.
Ansel Adam spent a lifetime photographing rocks
and landscapes. Rocks formed by the earth, carved
by the winds, begin to look like ancient people.
A mountaineer climbs Everest, returns and looks
up again. Everest remains untouched and ever-challenging
like a beautiful woman. Years of togetherness,
and as one moves around the curves, the passionate
and the tender are evoked and yet the female form
holds the mystery. Like the clouds—ethereal
and endless forms ever merging and disappearing
as if they never were. The tangible becomes intangible;
the mysteries of life and Nature never cease to
amaze.
An experience becomes a DARSHAN . . .
