Artists are temporarily enlightened



Sometimes, when I stood in the Louvre and I viewed in astonishment the colors of medieval paintings, because the colors were so intense, as if they were just painted. I had the feeling that the painter touched me through the centuries.

I firmly believe that the artist when (s)he creates a work - be it a poem, be it a sculpture or a picture or anything else, these artists express their the inner flame and they freeze their contact with the divine spark in their work. Artists are specific enlightened people, who will fall after the creation from the sky and will continue life with all their weaknesses. Artists jump with power and strength beyond the border, sweat and work to pull something over to us and the work remains and smiles at us, igniting the spark in our interior.

I want to thank you - artists. Thanks

Such an interesting concept... I have always believed in a bit of an evolutionary gap between such individuals... for instance Einstein... he was on a different level if you would say... more evolved...

I find this to be the case in human evolution... there will always be those who are more enlightened... older souls... more advanced in intuitions of sorts. When an artist captures something, I do believe you to be correct... the divine spark... I think you have inspired me...
