Outer circumstances magnify inner consciousness and awareness.

[Jitendra Hydonus]

i have had a continuing interest in what i 'see' during meditation. What i have notices over the years is that outer events and people coming and leaving our lives has much to say about our inner state of consciousness. It did not surprise me then to have an artist friend and his girl friend hanging out a lot where i live.

His amazing awareness of colors in painting has sparked an increasing interest in colors i have seen in meditation. Last nite he painted the back of one of my old vehicles. It looked so much better. Color really makes a difference in our lives and art decidedly increases our appreciation of how it affects our lives.
