Blanket

[This below is a bit frustrating to my mind as it feels like it has some depth to it, but if so, what that is for now escapes me.]

“If you came across some ugly, horrible sight on the side of the road, what would you do about it?”

“I don’t know. Maybe I’d put a blanket over it.”

“But that wouldn’t remove it. What would be the point? It would still be there.”

“Yes, but at least no one would have to look at it.”

The full, though still unfinished, picture was image of something I showed a few days ago, and with a colour filter applied.

“You know what to a certain person, or let’s say someone in a certain state of being, heaven might be?”

“What?”

“A world without distractions.”

“And do you know to another person, or person in a very different state of being, what hell might be like?”

“What?”

“A world without distractions.”

Something I’m doing now.

A Man Who Saw Demons

 I found this well worth watching.

A bit more cleaning up of the picture later.

across the night sky

 I should have photographed this a couple of days ago before I decided to try to see if something could be made of it, cos in truth it probably looked not much more than a mess fit for the bin. After plenty scraping away at the ink and paper with a sharp blade though, this is what I’ve managed to help emerge, not that it’s finished yet.

Tattoos, Piercings, Spirit of the Age

Why the massive increase in tattoos, piercings in the very modern era? Because the spirit of the age is materialism, and thus the mind/soul of those immersed in that spirit is on identification with the flesh, and to an unprecedented level. So the spirit tries to merge absolutely with the flesh. In the apparent absence of a higher spiritual reality, it tries to brand  itself in the physical. The sense of higher or spiritual truth is intrinsic to us and so that powerful yearning for truth and union will be there, but here it attempts to fulfil itself with the flesh - in a time where the prevalent ethos informs there is nothing beyond flesh/matter. So here is where truth is attained.

Obviously I could go on alot on this, but this is the brutal shorthand.
