“Don’t recall. Don’t imagine. Don’t think. Don’t examine. Don’t control. Rest.”

Samsara, this life and this world, is just a dream.

None of it is real!

It is an illusion,

Created by the Shakti (energy) of God.

As such it is simply to be observed and witnessed,

And enjoyed - where possible.

Do not take any of it too seriously,

Nor be overly concerned,

Or attached.

Observation, with joy, and without attachment is the practice of Sanyasa for the yogi.

“It is what is it, so observe and enjoy”

Joseph Skala Art - The Path to Mastery

Take your time to get it right. Take the time so that you can see more of the picture and understand what is really wanting to be created through you. Go slowly with precision so you actually arrive where you really want to be . In balance of action and observation lies the path to mastery.

Danielle Caners Art - Tree of Life 

The tree is perhaps our mightiest ancestor, a supreme role model of wisdom, compassion and patience. They are cornerstones to the ecosystem, tending to the soil, climate, oxygen and waters. They host and support a vast pageantry of organisms, and eventually give themselves back to the soil. Even as decaying logs, they are one of the richest ecosystems. Through their seasonal transformations, they teach the dance of the elements and laws of nature. Our ancestors worldwide recognized the divinity in trees. They lived among them, witnessing their ways. They worshipped them, as our indigenous peoples still do. We see this in their role as protagonists of myth and folklore. Egypt hailed the tree of life. The Kabbalah has its Tree of Life. The Nordics have the Yggdrasil. The Bible tells of the burning bush and Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Symbolically, the tree can represent the human spine. It also shares the form and functions of our lungs; trees carry out the other half of our breath cycle. The tree can also be seen as the world axis, a bridge between two worlds with branches sprawling to the heavens and roots burrowing into the underworld. In this depiction, the Tree of Life carries the chakras or 7 major energy centers. Each one contains a portal to elements of the soul’s journey. Throughout the image are depictions of the cycles of life, birth, death, evolution and continuation. I leave it to you to explore the symbols and reflect on their personal significance

Danielle Caners Art - Waking Life

Consider this painting a roadmap into yourself. The chakras are an ancient system that illustrate the subtle functions of your human vessel. The seven primary chakras represent major junction points of energy in the body. These symbols are meant to reflect on and help us gain insight on ourselves. They teach us how we grow and evolve as human beings and to access our highest potential. Through reflection on these centers, you may gain access to personal insights, and learn how to transcend obstacles. Most of our greatest sources of frustration, disappointment and discomfort have roots within the self. We inherit much of these programs in the womb and early life, but as adults we are in the driver’s seat. It’s up to us to claim responsibility for our thoughts and actions; and what we are creating as a result. By learning where the patterns come from and understanding our own psychology start on the path to realize our greatest potentials.
