Sometimes it's good to admire the older works, and this piece, "Dulcinea", by the self-proclaimed two-headed female artist mutant @feralplains is definitely one to come back to!⁣ ⁣ ...⁣ posted on Instagram - https://instagr.am/p/CJCOOYmJnV5/

"In the last dance of chances, We shall know each other's minds. We shall part with our regrets, When the tie no longer binds." - Robin Hobb About the digital painting : The crow is a harbinger of change; spiritual, mental and emotional. They unite both the light and the dark, the spiritual and physical and announces a newness on the horizon without a sense of time. The tattoo reads in Hindi : "The old must be released so that the new can enter." - Kali पुराने को जारी किया जाना चाहिए ताकि नया प्रवेश कर सके

Eternal Recurrence

"Our quest, our earth walk, is to look within, to know who we are, to see that we are connected to all things, that there is no separation, only in the mind." 

- Native American, source unknown 

About : Eternal Recurrence is a concept where the universe, all existence and energy has been recurring and will continue to recur in a self-similar form an infinite number of times across time and space. The concept makes time move circular instead of linear. We had to think of this because at the turn of each season I feel the same different emotions while creating artwork. It makes me wonder how restricted our range of human emotions exactly is. But every year around this time our artwork tends to get a little bit too brightly colored by the influence of summer, it is only after summer that we come to our senses and find the right tone. With this one we wanted to be ahead of that feeling, to be aware of our 'eternal recurrence' and to find our mojo before autumn starts. The cube as platonic solid represents earth. The tattoo says "The soul can never be cut to pieces by any weapon, nor burned by fire, nor moistened by water, nor withered by the wind" in Hindi. - Bhagavad Gita

On finishing this piece, we had to think of that old Jack London phrase about the wild "..the masterful wisdom of eternity laughing at the futility of life..". Which sounds a bit harsh but to us it's a beautiful description of accepting pain and suffering as the tender-hearted part of our human experience. And often the acceptance of the negative gives way to the positive. About the digital painting : Sweet Sorrow. "Were all stars to disappear or die, I should learn to look at an empty sky, And feel its total dark sublime, Though this might take me a little time." -W.H. Auden The tattoo says in Hindi : "This moment is all there is." -Rumi #feralplains #artwork #newcontemporary #magicrealism #art #kunst #digitalpainting #digitalart #blackbirds #birds #birdistheword #black #sorrow #stars #instart #life #instagood #instamood #girl #love

[vedicshastras]

Ineffable - The ancients compared the Deity to that source of Light, from which the Light flows: not an ocean from which a part of itself flows or flashes out, but a substance of which the visible Light is an effect or manifestation.  Of the substance itself there could be no cognition.  Even Fire, (Agni) of which Flame, Heat and Light are effects or manifestations, is but a name.  Combustion, Burning, is but a chemical operation, and the Nature of all these, even of Heat and Light, like the nature of Electricity, is as utterly unknown to us now as it was to the ancients. The Kabbalah declares that the Very God has No Name. - The utmost effort towards cognition of Deity that we can make is to say that It is a Spirit, like a human Soul, known to us as a soul is, by its manifestations.  But we have as little right to compare God to a human Soul, to conceive of It as resembling a Human Soul, as resembling a Human Soul, as we had to compare It to the substance of Light or to the self of Electricity.  A Soul is as much a creature as these are.  We can absolutely have no conception or idea at all, of what the Deity Is, nor even attribute Existence to It, in any sense which that word can have to us. _____________________________________________ Art: 'Sri Yantra' by Feral Plains (@feralplains #feralplains) #wisdom #esoteric #symbolism #philosophy #mystery #albertpike #thebookofwords #ineffable (at Vedic Shastras) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJYK0oSFa36/?igshid=rdwlkjw8w9sp

[vedicshastras]

Mental Laws - We need not dwell upon the feature of illusion. Rather let us, recognizing the real nature of the Universe, seek to understand its mental laws, and endeavor to use them to the best effect in our upward progress through life, as we travel from plane to plane of being. The Laws of the Universe are none the less “Iron Laws” because of the mental nature. All, except THE ALL, are bound by them. What is IN THE INFINITE MIND OF THE ALL is REAL in a degree second only to that Reality itself which is vested in the nature of THE ALL. - So, do not feel insecure or afraid—we are all HELD FIRMLY IN THE INFINITE MIND OF THE ALL, and there is naught to hurt us or for us to fear. There is no Power outside of THE ALL to affect us. So we may rest calm and secure. There is a world of comfort and security in this realization when once attained. Then “calm and peaceful do we sleep, rocked in the Cradle of the Deep”—resting safely on the bosom of the Ocean of Infinite Mind, which is THE ALL. In THE ALL, indeed, do “we live and move and have our being.” _____________________________________________ Amazing Art by Feral Plains (@FeralPlains #feralplains) @vedic.shastras #vedicshastras #bhramhavaastu #vastu #kybalion #hermetic #esoteric #occult #wisdom #symbolism #philosophy #ancientegypt #egyptian #kemet #thoth #tehuti #hermes #hermestrismegistus (at Vedic Shastras) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH-ALXXlJwT/?igshid=kcd6p9rpcglc
