The consciousness of the artist

‘Art is the expression of life,’ Maharishi Mahesh Yogi said, ‘and life in its wholeness is absolute bliss consciousness. Every expression of life is an expression of bliss, and art expresses a greater value of bliss.

‘The skill of an artist is not limited to his professional activity, but applies to every aspect of his life. The life of an artist is the display of fullness, and that must be on the basis of the fullness of his consciousness.’

Through the Science of Creative Intelligence, the systematic development of the full potential of life has become available to every individual. This has made it possible to develop the full potential of art in the life of every individual in a natural way.

‘In this scientific age, art is no longer dependent on moments of inspiration. Through the Science of Creative Intelligence every artist will spontaneously develop the ability to express freely his own unbounded awareness in the boundaries of his creation.’ Maharishi said.

Through the practice of Maharishi’s Transcendental Meditation, the artist will rise to Cosmic Consciousness, in which unboundedness is maintained along with the ability to focus attention.

‘The growth of Cosmic Consciousness in the student provides the ground for the development of Unity Consciousness, in which unboundedness, infinity, is expressed in every boundary of living,’ Maharishi continued.

The Science of Creative Intelligence provides the link between all sciences and all branches of art by developing the home of all the Laws of Nature, the home of all knowledge, in the awareness of both the artist and the scientist. The Science of Creative Intelligence develops wholeness of life in everyone.

Maharishi then said that, ‘In the Age of Enlightenment, every individual will express the full value of life; every individual will be an artist.

‘Pure consciousness is the abstract field in which the artist can mould the fine details of any shape or form. In order to create any desired shape, the consciousness of the artist must be as pure, flexible, and comprehensive as possible.’

Through the regular practice of Maharishi’s Transcendental Meditation, the nervous system becomes free from stress. ‘As a result, the artist’s consciousness becomes so pure that while he is actually creating his work of art, he is able to maintain in his awareness the beautiful picture he has envisioned.

‘The quality of bliss pulsating in the consciousness of the artist creates expressions of bliss in his art. When art is created from the eternal field of pure consciousness, it will continue to inspire life generation after generation.

‘It is fortunate that in this generation the procedure of Transcendental Meditation is available to develop that basic ground on which aspect of art will breathe life in the full dignity of the Absolute,’ Maharishi said.
