Art - true creation is to sculpt our inner selves

12/26/2024

The concept of creation is the quintessence of our teaching. Yes, to create, but to create what? Paintings or sculpture? To work on canvas, wood or marble? No, to work on yourself, because you yourself are the true base material. A sculptor produces a few statues and that is all very well, but when you look at that person, you see that they have never tried to sculpt themselves: they are still merely raw material. No end of people will show you their little paintings, their songs and their poems, and these reflect only their inner chaos. Enough of all these artists! Where are the true artists, ready to start the real work, ready to sculpt their inner selves? This kind of work is unknown, it is unheard of, but it is the work of the future.*
