Dzieło będące pokłonem w stronę pradawnej energii kobiecej Śakti, bazowany na intuicji i wyobraźni ale niepozbawiony świadomego działania. Obraz ten przyszedł do mnie sam, przedstawiona nań modelka istnieje wyłącznie w eterycznej formie pod postacią mojego wyobrażenia. A zatem jest to przejaw pierwiastka twórczego, który zawiera się w głowach i pracy rąk każdego z nas. Świadomie zdecydowałam się przedstawić to niesamowite zjawisko pod postacią kobiety o smukłych (nawiązanie do świętości), silnych ale i ludzkich oraz kobiecych kształtach. Biżuteria która zdobi jej ciało ma za zadanie pokazać bogactwo energii kobiecej, zamiast zakrywać jej wdzięki zdecydowałam się wyeksponować je, bez zbędnej wulgarności, której kultura euroamerykaństka dopatruje się zazwyczaj w nagości. Nasze fizyczne formy są święte, dlatego na każde ciało powinniśmy patrzeć z zachwytem, łagodnością i szacunkiem. Chcę aby między innymi to właśnie mówił ten obraz. Bogini ma białe włosy aby pokazać, że zjawisko, które prezentuje jest starsze niż cokolwiek na świecie i zawiera w sobie mądrość niemożliwą do pojęcia rozumiem. Jako przeważającą barwę również wybrałam biel, aby podkreślić lekkość i czystość tegoż eterycznego bytu. Aby biel mogła zaświecić potrzebowałam użyć odrobiny czerni, którą jednak stonowałam szlachetną zielenią (kolor miłości) a także odrobiną błękitów (kolor kreatywności). Jako akcentu kolorystycznego użyłam czerwieni - koloru przetrwania oraz mocy. Barwa ta przybiera całą gamę odcieni od karmazynu aż po pudrowy róż, aby podkreślić różnoraką naturę siły kobiecej oraz wielość form, którą może przybierać. Plamy barwne miejscami naśladują technikę akwarelową aby uhonorować subtelność podjętej tematyki, jednak zderzają się one z zdecydowanymi pociągnięciami, które mają na celu pokazać ciężar materii. Chciałam w ten sposób zwrócić uwagę na to iż świat metafizyczny jest nierozerwalnie związany ze światem fizycznym a jeden pozwala na doświadczanie przejawów drugiego. W obrazie znalazło się zarówno miejsce na przypadek, jak i świadome posłużenie się moim warsztatem malarskim, doświadczeniem oraz wiedzą z zakresu anatomii oraz symboliki różnych kultur. Obraz jest hołdem w kierunku wszystkich kultur ludzkich, które podejmowały próbę dotarcia do prawd dotyczących kobiecości bez piętnowania i tłamszenia jej. Tytuł jednak celowo odwołuje się do tradycji hinduistycznej, gdyż w moim subiektywnym odczuciu, na etapie życia na którym obecnie się znajduję, ta religia charakteryzuje się najbardziej rezonującym ze mną rozumieniem energii kobiecej.
Because we, who have become sight-joined, see the world, accepting one principle (or ‘first thing’, or fundamental) which has a power that becomes many is certainly the one best option. The picture of names and forms, the one who sees, the cohesive screen, and the pervading light – all these are he, who is oneself.
Sri Ramana Maharshi - Ulladu Narpadu (The Forty verses on Reality), Verse 2
Because we, the ego or individual, whose adjunct-nature is the faculty to see things as other than ‘I’, see this world of multiplicity, it is indispensable for us to accept the existence of one first principle which has a power to appear as many. This worldpicture, which consists merely of names and forms, the seer of this picture, the screen or supporting base upon which this picture appears, and the pervading light which illumines this picture – all these are only He, that one first principle, who is none other than the real Self.
Because we, who [by rising as the ego] have become joined with sight, see the world, accepting one mudal [first thing, origin, source, base or fundamental reality] that has a power that becomes many [appearances, namely ourself as the ego, the seer or perceiver, and all the manifold phenomena that constitute this or any other world that we may see or perceive] is certainly the one best option. The picture of names and forms [namely the world and whatever other phenomena appear in the mind], the one who sees [this picture] [namely the ego], the cohesive screen [namely the mind as the background on which it appears], and the pervading light [namely the mind as the reflected light of awareness, which is what illumines its appearance] — all these are he [the one original thing], who is oneself [one’s real nature].
Explanatory Note :
The link-words at the beginning of this verse are pārvai sēr, which literally mean ‘who are joined with sight’, and which imply that the faculty of seeing is not natural to us but is only an adjunct which we have appended on ourself and from which we can consequently detach ourself.
The words ōr mudalai, which mean ‘one principle’ or ‘one first thing’, denote the one Reality which underlies the appearance of both the world and the seer. The entire appearance consisting of the world, the seer, the screen and the light are not other than that one first principle, which is affirmed in the last line of this verse to be the real Self. But so long as we experience a difference between ourself, the seer, and the world which we see, that one first principle will be experienced by us as God, a third separate entity who is endowed with unlimited qualities such as Omnipotence and Omniscience and who governs the entire world and all the souls in that world.
The words nāṉā ām śakti, which literally mean ‘a manifold power’ or ‘ a power which is many’, denote the power of Maya or delusion which is the cause of the appearances of all manyness and which is the same as the wonderful power (adisaya sakthi) mentioned in verse 6 of Arunachala Ashtakam. Though in absolute truth, this power is not other than the first principle, the real Self, it seems to be something different from the real Self when it gives rise to this appearance of manyness. Since manyness could not appear to exist if this power did not exist, and since there is nothing other than this power which could appear as many, it is sometimes said that this power itself has become many. However, its becoming many is not actually a real becoming, but only a seeming becoming, because even when manyness is seen, all that manyness is in truth only the one first principle, which is the non-dual real Self. The act of becoming many or seeming to become many is postulated only because we see the world. But even when we see this world of duality and multiplicity, non duality alone is the truth and hence all duality and multiplicity should be understood to be merely an unreal appearance.
The words “the pervading light” (ār oḷiyum) here mean the mind-light, which is a reflection of the real light of self-consciousness and which is the limited light by which we see the entire picture of names and forms.
Hey everyone! Today I wanted to talk about Shakti. In one sense, Shakti is the essence of femininity, the power of womanhood itself. However, in another sense, Shakti is a goddess, a goddess by which other gods and goddesses come to be. Shakti is usually depicted with Shiva, that Shiva and Shakti must be together as one for the death or rebirth of the universe to take place. This union could best be seen in Ardhanarishvara, who is half male and half female, hale Shiva and half Shakti. I’m honestly super interested in Shakti and would love to learn more, but really, as such an outsider, I don’t have much to offer on that topic today. Regardless, I hope that everyone is staying safe out there and has a great day.
Anyway. Kicks legs. Spending the night in the Sun Tower apparently and I deserve the rest but also despite the fact that that was supposed to be a drain on my... actually not energy but programming. I feel refreshed because. yippie! Yeah my phone offers three words constantly for autocorrect type autosuggestions and two of it's suggestions for following yippie! are now Sex and Recreating. Yippie sex and recreating!
