Art of Now

!

There exists a responsibility deeper than time’s influence or changing contexts. For instance, a responsibility not to pollute consciousness with corruption, or to wield fear as a manipulative power tool. What do we name this kind of responsibility? To my understanding, it appears to be marked by the absence of intention and ideas. At first, this might seem like a compromise, but upon deeper reflection, it resonates with the pure responsibility evident in nature. The sun has a responsibility, but not an intention. The sea, the trees, and nature’s entire ecosystem carry responsibility, not through intention but through their very existence. Sadly, this fundamental responsibility is often forgotten.

In an era where analysts often err based on known knowledge, the text underscores emotions' mechanical nature. Machines are set to exceed human emotions due to this mechanistic essence. However, beyond this lies a realm of pure, unconditional beauty, urging us to question deeper than the known. Read full post at - https://creativethreads.net/2023/10/05/ais-emotional-surge/

To practice free creative flow, begin by acknowledging personal barriers to your daily flow like depression and anxiety, conflicts. This art, deeply rooted in ancient traditions like Zen and Chinese arts, emphasizes "flowing from emptiness" and the beauty of stillness. In today's world, rife with distractions, it's about returning to that blank canvas of the mind, away from ongoing distractions. True creative flow isn't about the output but cherishing the process and the infinite possibilities of a fresh start. Learn more about FCF https://creativethreads.net/learn-fcf/

The Art of Now: Delving into Free Creative Flow ~~~ Within the vast tapestry of creative expression, Free Creative Flow, or FCF, stands as a distinct tapestry of its own. It's rooted, not in intention or preconception, but in the pure act of not knowing. Most art forms aim for controlled, deliberate outcomes, where an artist’s intent, technique, and prowess determine the end result. Contrastingly, FCF embarks on an uncharted journey. It's unguided, unrestrained, and refreshingly unpredictable. This isn't about the artist’s skill but about the sheer act of creation itself. Everything you witness in the accompanying video — from the fluid calligraphy lines to the heartfelt handwriting, the evocative photos, and the spontaneous piano play — was birthed from Free Creative Flow. These visuals and sounds don't just exemplify FCF; they are its manifestations. The art speaks for itself, while this text merely offers a glimpse into its context. At the heart of FCF is the white page. It's more than just a blank canvas; it symbolizes the very source of creation. Be it a tangible page or a mental state, this emptiness provides the fertile ground for creativity to flourish. Embracing FCF does more than just alter one's artistic approach. It metamorphoses one's very essence. It's a shift rooted not in acquired skills but in our intrinsic self. This transformative art form obliterates the confines of 'mistakes,' allowing for an uninhibited flow of creativity. But perhaps the most profound impact of Free Creative Flow lies in its ability to liberate the mind. When bathed in the river of FCF, burdens dissolve. Fears, anxieties, stress, and even depression are replaced with an effervescent creativity. The mind, unshackled, simply blooms. FCF doesn't call for technical mastery or extensive training. It seeks, instead, your heart. This art form, so intrinsically tied to the present, is more than just "the art of now." It is the "heart of now." It is the now, and it is freedom.

True questioning seeks understanding, not conclusions. It's akin to not knowing. While we're familiar with movement and knowledge, we can't fully grasp absolute stillness, the unknown, or our inner self. To genuinely embrace these discussions, one needs an open mind, willing to challenge its own beliefs and reflect on the very nature of questioning.

The present moment feels tangible, yet elusive. Anything beyond it seems like an abstract idea, perhaps even unreal. The challenge lies in truly embracing and understanding the 'now'. While future concepts might be mere illusions, the essence and depth of the current moment demand a closer look. The real inquiry is: How deeply can we meet the immediacy of now?

The essence of what it means to be human is beautifully complex. Beyond our physical bodies and consciousness, we possess a unique drive to question our own nature. This isn’t about intellect or philosophy but a deep, intrinsic curiosity. It’s not driven by ideas, reason, or expectation, but something untouched by these constructs. 🍃 Read full post at https://creativethreads.net/2023/09/20/what-is-a-human-being/ 🥗 Support my work at https://Buymeacoffee.com/amihai

I am often asked, who is Jiddu Krishnamurti, and the reply is that I don't know. If someone wants to know who is Jiddu Krishnamurti, it's a very good idea to consider the reply to that question by Jiddu Krishnamurti, and he said, I am no one. When I heard that reply, it was as if in the mind, in the understanding, the sky got open. Look at the sky, see the sky. Ask the sky, who are you? If you will see that there is no such thing as sky, there is only openness, infinite openness, you will know what is the truth in that reply, I am no one. And if it is true for Jiddu Krishnamurti, isn't it true for you? Footage extracted from - https://youtu.be/t7Yaaof6cMY?si=jp4X1EQsUrYOEfLe

Distinguishing between "imagined" (created by the mind) and "real" (untouched by the mind), the text probes our perceptions and the nature of questioning. It suggests that even our deepest inquiries might stem from imagination. The essence of the challenge is recognizing questions unformed by the mind, implying they exist within the realm of the unknown. 🍃 Read full post at https://creativethreads.net/2023/09/18/reality-imagined-or-unknown/ 🥗 Support my work at https://Buymeacoffee.com/amihai

In the video from the Observing Beauty channel, the creator challenges viewers to reconsider societal definitions of power, value, and quality of life. Arguing that the relentless pursuit of financial freedom can hinder inner freedom, the video questions our complicity in perpetuating a system that equates power and money, often at the expense of true value creation. Introducing the concept of 'Justribute', it asks if value distribution can reflect actual contribution. The creator emphasizes a present-focused quality of life, rooted in health, environment, relationships, and passion. 🍃 Read full post at https://creativethreads.net/2023/09/16/quality-of-life-now/ 🥗 Support my work at https://Buymeacoffee.com/amihai

"Can you trust the rain?" This contemplative question beckons us to delve deeper, beyond surface perceptions. It highlights water's impartial flow and infinite beauty.

Young adults grapple with an apparent conflict between material pursuits and inner freedom. This article clarifies that this struggle is not inherent but fabricated by fear. Life can either be tethered by this fear or evolve in a free creative flow. In a life steered by this flow, resource concerns arise without the weight of fear. While it doesn’t promise easy answers, it reshapes the very foundation of the dilemma. 🍃 Read full post at https://creativethreads.net/2023/09/11/fear-driven-occupation-vs-choiceless-flow/ 🥗 Support my work at https://buymeacoffee.com/amihai

Some of you express an interest in understanding and the nature of that interest is different from one another. Some are looking for instructions, whether they call it like that or just hope for it. Others want to know what I meant when I said something. And there are few that wonder if they can find it in themselves. And that’s where I feel the whole communication happens. There is no delegation of knowledge, experience, authority, when it comes to the new, to the authentic, to the fresh which is alive. 🍃 To read full post https://creativethreads.net/2023/09/03/true-sharing/ 🥗 To support my work https://Buymeacoffee.com/amihai

In a world filled with teaching, does true learning actually occur? While machines excel in knowledge and skill-based tasks, there remains a form of learning unique to human consciousness. This learning is life itself, untethered by methods or goals. It doesn't lead to certificates, but it’s pivotal for understanding the essence of life uncorrupted. As technology advances, we must ask: are we truly learning in a meaningful way, or are we merely preparing for a collapse in our collective consciousness? 🍃 Read the full post at - https://creativethreads.net/2023/09/02/the-illusion-of-teaching/ 🥗 Support my work at - https://Buymeacoffee.com/amihai

Inner freedom is compromised by our various attachments, whether to objects, individuals, or ideologies. These attachments create a false sense of security and divert us from a life of true freedom. Money is particularly revealing; when our navigation in life is influenced by its accumulation, we step away from freedom. The key to navigating life authentically lies in self-awareness, where we observe these attachments and understand that true freedom is not "for sale" 🍃 Read full post - https://creativethreads.net/2023/09/01/money-attachment-to-attachment/ 🥗 Support my work - https://Buymeacoffee.com/amihai

Innovation within power structures inevitably leads to exploitation, limiting its transformative potential. Despite many fields boasting of progress, what we see is a fraction of what could be achieved through holistic innovation. The true innovator, driven by the pure desire to solve problems, is a rarity. Such individuals aren't influenced by power or financial gain; they are motivated by the challenge of the unknown. But they are the outliers in a world unprepared to foster or even recognize this form of innovation. Such world is unsustainable in the long run. 🍃 Read full post at https://creativethreads.net/2023/08/31/holistic-innovation/ 🥗 Support my work at https://Buymeacoffee.com/amihai

Exploring human differences, they often appear fluid and perhaps superficial. I spent a decade watching this paradoxical question of inner freedom, discovering a “reasonless beauty” as the heart of existence. This questions whether fundamental differences between us are real or illusory. Inquiring into the nature of inner freedom, or its absence, allows us to coexist or relate beyond boundaries.

When the question 'Who are you?' breaks through life's noise, it reveals a profound truth: we are, simply and undeniably, as we are. As we grapple with labels and memories to describe ourselves, we drift from the undeniable fact of our being.

"What do I want?" seems straightforward, but it's a loaded question that often keeps us stuck in a cycle of wanting and chasing. The real question to ask is not about what you want, but rather "What is the free will?" It's a question that forces you to confront your own limitations, pushing you to the edge of your understanding. No book or advice can truly answer it for you. The real insight comes when you sit with the question, honestly, and let go of preconceived notions. In that space, free will isn't something to define; it reveals itself. 🍃 Read - https://creativethreads.net/2023/08/27/what-do-you-want/ 🥗 Support - https://www.Buymeacoffee.com/amihai

Walking among passersby, we label them as strangers, distinct from our "I." But questioning this "I" leads to deeper introspection: if there's no "I," is there another? Without this "I", is there a need for categorization? This perception shapes our interactions, potentially seeing others as rivals. A shift in perspective might change how we truly see others, a revelation that's beyond words.

Responsibility, at its core, prompts us to reflect on our connections to the self. Do our responsibilities arise from self-interest? Is genuine care solely for things linked to our personal identity or can it extend to the unknown? Delving deep might reveal that true responsibility, care, and even love are intertwined, suggesting a universal form of care that emerges from the unknown and guides us back to it. 🍃 Read full post at - https://creativethreads.net/2023/08/25/the-fountain-of-universal-care/ 🥗 Support my work at - https://www.Buymeacoffee.com/amihai
