Artwork Description:
[ from the book THE FINDHORN GARDEN, page 69 ] YOU CONSIDER US BEINGS OF LIGHT & JOY, WHICH WE ARE, BUT YOU SELDOM CONSIDER HUMANS AS BEINGS OF LIGHT, WHICH YOU ARE. AS YOU ENCOMPASS ALL WORLDS, INCLUDING OURS, WHEN YOU DROP YOUR BURDENS AND BECOME A CREATURE OF LIGHT, YOU ARE ONE OF US.
The primary impact on me of the deva world has been this necessity to rise to a higher state within myself in order to contact them. If I am depressed, angry, resentful, or caught in some negative emotional state, I cannot enter the light and joyous atmosphere of their realms.
YOU CANNOT BRING WEIGHTS INTO OUR WORLD, YOU CANNOT COME TO US UNLESS YOU ARE FREE, CHILD-LIKE, AND LIGHT. IF YOU CHOOSE, YOU CAN LIVE YOUR EVERYDAY LIFE IN THE VERY SAME ATTITUDE WHICH YOU BRING TO US. YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO DROP YOUR BURDENS TO CONTACT US AND THEREFORE YOU KNOW YOU CAN DO IT. WE SAY WHY NOT DO IT ALL THE TIME ? IT SEEMS STRANGE TO LIVE ON THE OLD WAY WHEN FREEDOM IS YOURS AT ANY TIME YOU CHOOSE. YOU LOVE THE FEEL OF OUR LIFE. WHY NOT LIVE IN IT MORE OFTEN ?
