Natya…(dance)
There will be no wisdom, no learning,
no art, nor craft, no device,
nor action that is not found within
natya.
~ ` ~ Sage Bharatha, Natya Shastra
Not the flower but the Fragrance…
You ask me ,
” can you tell us what is the purpose of creation ? ”
The world has never been created.
It has always been here ,
it is eternal.
There is no creator of the world :
God is not the creator of the world …
god is the
very creative energy of existence —
creativity rather than a creator.
He is not the poet but
the poetry…
Not the dancer
but the dance….
not the flower but
the fragrance…
~~~~~The Dhammapada
( the way of Buddha )
Dance of the reef heron…
When despair for the world grows in me,
and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be —
I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feed
I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought or grief.
I come into the presence of still water. And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light
For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.
~~ Wendell Berry
Creativity is the Blue Heron within us waiting to fly;
through her imagination, all things become possible.”
~~ Nadia janice
He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
Psalm 91:4″
It danced
before my lens…..
Trust freely the strength
of the wind…
