Meditation and the Creative Process

 

When we practice dharma art, there’s a quality of freedom in the artistic process. Our art becomes something we discover rather than create. When we..begin to relax…we don’t have to try so hard…we let go. Now the real artisan begins to come out. We begin to have a pure perception based on no system, not even the system of ‘me.’ When we discover the natural level of perception that exists primordially…when we are one with the objects we perceive, we have discovered dharma art.”  Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche
