My contribution to the drawing Contest: "Invisible Drawing" by @yoganarchista/Title: "Growing insight"

Dear Steemians!✨

There are no coincidences, right? When I woke up this morning I told my husband that I really want to do more art again, as it is truely liberating to my soul! And just a few hours later I came across this amazing art contest by dear @yoganarchista!

What a great chance to motivate myself and realize my plans even faster than expected!

I immediately loved the idea of drawing in the dark as this is something extremely valuable. Why? Because you can't think about what to draw and whether it looks perfect or not. You just have to trust your creativity and the divine flow which guides your hand. No ego. No perfectionism. Just pure and athentic art and beauty. I decided to take part and submit a drawing, too! 🎨

So I grabbed a paper and two pens whith the colours of the darkness. Even if darkness sometimes revelas very colourful patterns, visions and other very psychedelic things to my mind when I close my eyes. But I decided to take black and blue and look what if feels to only paint with dark colours. And it was SO much fun!

I turned off the lights, went down on my knees on the ground and started to meditate for a short while. When I felt ready and was able to let go my thoughts, I started to invite all the impressions, secrets and patterns the darkness revealed to me. And to be honest: I was overwhelmed! I didn't expect such clear visions to come to my mind. I rather expected some dots and patterns which the still remaining impression of the light in my eyes left which my brain was about to process. But it didn't take long time until a very clear message came to me and showed it's beauty to me. A floral fractal, just like a Lotus flower and a big eye looking directly into my mind. I felt a strong energy in my body and wondered if my short meditation opened a gateway to my higher self before I started painting.

Even if I don't know the reason for this magical moment, I feel so grateful for it as it feels very encouraging. Just like the divine telling me: Keep on following your path. Keep on meditating. Keep on seeking your spiritual truth and you'll gain some growing insights.

That's why I called this piece of art "Growing insight"!

I want to thank @yoganarchista for this unique and brilliant idea and for the (for me) very touching moment it brought to me! It was a mix between an art session, a very powerful meditation and a spiritual epiphany!💮

Here's what darkness revealed to me:

A flower as pure as light itself and an all-seeing, inner eye which lets you see all the things your physical eyes aren't able to capture.

Somehow there are a lot of emotions inside me now. I guess I'll meditate about that encounter this evening to appreciate it and show my gratefulness to the divine✨

Be creative, be love! 💖

Namasté,

yours Linda
