Be Present. Be happy.

“Painting is a means of self-enlightenment.” – John Olsen

To send light into the darkness of men’s hearts – such is the duty of the artist.” – Schumann

“I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free” – Michelangelo

“Art is the stored honey of the human soul.” – Theodore Dreiser

“The artist’s world is limitless. It can be found anywhere, far from where he lives or a few feet away. It is always on his doorstep.” – Paul Strand

“If a man devotes himself to art, much evil is avoided that happens otherwise if one is idle.” – Albrecht Durer

“Painting is the grandchild of nature. It is related to God.” – Rembrandt

“To practice any art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow. So do it.” – Kurt Vonnegut

“The purpose of art is to make the invisible visible.” – Paul Klee

“Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” – Pablo Picasso

Art has a lot of definitions, all can be right. It has always been with us throughout human history. Art is something that gives us harmony, happiness, recharges us and helps us to be connected. If Art is around, we are not alone.
Meditation keeps us in the present, and being in the present is the core of human life. Our mind can never stop; it always needs a job, a task to do. When it is doing something with effort, it remains with it, when it is not occupied, it wanders around. We need to engage it with a job that we choose. It can be any ordinary task that needs concentration, so our mind can focus on it and could stay with it, and in that way it keeps us in the present. Or in case it is a transcendental, a spiritual activity, it takes us to a different level of existence.
Society identifies us with our actions, not with our personality or nature, just what we did. Every individual is a person who acts, but he is not the action itself. It is not easy to realize that, because we were raised to recognise one another through actions. Action reflects our nature, our education, our cultural background and mostly what we believe is expected of us. To free ourselves from all these different layers is a long spiritual journey.
There are some people with mental problems who are stuck in this present. Because they did not prepare themselves for this type of condition, they don’t know what they can do with being present. People around them will be confused, because these people will not remember their own life story, that part is gone. They cannot make any plans in advance, because the future does not exist for them. They have only the present moment, but they have arrived there from a very different way, they arrived like losers.
Meditation is good for healing in general; it gives space to one’s own healing energies. Art provides an experience of being present, and presence is the place where we get support, where the mind is able to connect with the Universe.
There is some relevant scientific research that proved that Art can have substantial benefits for any type of illness.
