You may recognize the reference to the song by Love and Rockets. I was on my facebook account when I received an IM from Digital Artist Tripti Singh. Tripti lives in India. I had sent her a friend request based on a group we both belong to and I assume she was trying to make sure I am not a stalker. :-) ... I'm not (no, really).
During this conversation I discovered her art. My questions soon turned to how she relates her art to Spirit. She gave a detailed answer about the residual energy left over in the form of Kundalini energy. As a Hindu, she explained her connection to higher soul and how this connects to give her art a spark of divinity. These excerpt are from our conversation.
About being imbued with creative energy from Spirit-
Tripti
Yes I believe these things we carry by birth
and situations never make us separated from it.
If we go far from it, we are pulled back in.
Have you felt that force?

I have tried a few times to stop making music and I have tried to stop being involved in ministry. I end up being pulled back every time.
It is as if, a part of me is asleep and then wakes up and walks me in that direction.

It's quit strong force it never lets us escape.
Yes and it fills me with guilt.... that i am doing something wrong to suppress it.

YES!!!! I understand that!
Tripti
There are people who are connected with same thought.... this time I met a musician.
wow great feeling!
wow great feeling!
I am sort of at will ... when I want and when I don't want...with higher soul, then other spirit....
I believe I am connected with higher soul.

Do you have ways that help you connect with that higher soul or does it just happen on it's own?
Tripti
Yes meditations.
It's like opening a window.
I do it on my will when i want to do it.
Some times it happens when something strong hits my thought.
It pulls me back.

I find that inspiration comes when I am thinking about something else. I have written many songs while driving or washing the dishes, mundane things...
Tripti
I always have to go in isolation.
At this point in the conversation Tripti talks about a meditation she has done.
Tripti
Well three persons imagine to sit on three ends of triangle
and do meditation
and try to connected with divine light.

We agreed to set up a time to try meditation in this way. She in Kanpur India, me in Tucson Arizona and another person of her choice. She also gave me permission to show her artwork here on this blog. Please Contact her with your thoughts on her work. I, for one, love it.
Funny, I was not thinking about any of this when I sat down to work tonight. It is now three hours later and I have not done a thing on my list. Spirit found me when I was not looking.
