True art should not have anything to do with the discursive mind. It is a different kind of inspiration, not seated in the body or the apparent personality. It is a motion to which one must submit oneself so that the body is made to endure physical and emotional pain in the spontaneous and psychic process of being overwhelmed, of being radiant. It should be a sacred incantation of involvement with Transcendental Consciousness, the creative resource of Being.
True art has a purpose for others, not merely for the artist. The purpose of art is to enliven, heal and positively transform the participants in a process of self-understanding. That means that for an artist to be effective he must submit to the process of self-undestanding. The need for the personal discipline of self-understanding is as important as technical understanding in order to serve the higher purpose of art.
