it is all heART....where flows are possible...no coincidence that lot of masters have been poets, painters, singers etc...tx for a lovely piece aartchii...

Dear Aachi

I was so excited to see this article of yours with the Osho painting. I have been fascinated by Osho's art and his signature for a long long time. Then one day I just began to make his signatures. I who had never drawn/painted in my life. And as I made them I realised that his signatures were comprised of human figures in different postures. Representing entire cycles of humanity.

You state it so beautifully when you say "Osho's art is the roadmap to supreme conciousness".

Thanks for this

love
Anusheh

Dear Sundar,

what a lovely way u have put art as a part of heart. I know that many great mystics were artists in their own right, but I have never seen anything like Osho art before. It is vaguely similar to an artform by artist called Helen Frankenthaler.

very soft and deeply abstract.

Dear Anusheh,

your post made me go back and look again at the signatures...you are absolutley right! what a lovely potrayal. You have an art critics eye o discern the meaning of the signature. I for one moment was thinking it represents the musical notes on a piano book.

I wold love to see your representations...please do mail me your art photgraphs.

lots of love,

and harb, i am replying to ur query on another thread here...tirupathi Balaji was very beautiful...but i thought he looked a little stout this time....perhaps the laddoos are getting to him...lol.

aachi, heART is one of the logos i have designed for myself for a project in process.glad you liked it.

aachi o aachi....your message has reached me...

anusheh, your talking of osho's signatures as human figures in different postures....reminded me of a new kind of alphabet invented by a very close american friend of mine kiren voght. see that at www.kidswellness.net and www.alphabetfitness.org

i hope you both will enjoy...

Good Morning All

Aachi you never cease to amaze me. rarely have I read anyone who could encapsulate what Osho did with colour, shape and movement. I am going to try and get this video for you which was an extraordinary experience. In Delhi they have a stunning shop dedicated to Osho's music, discourses, books and art-its called Osho World. I was fascinated by the signature as most people are, rummaging through hise books in the shop trying to find what he had said if anything about his signature. Suddenly one of his disciples who manages the shop comes and taps me on the shoulder and says if I had a minute he would like to show me something. He puts on this tape recorded in he Pune Commune in OSho's private library. The entire video was on his art, his favourite books, and his signatutre. Apparently he had signed all the first pages of his favourite books. The film would go totally silent as he would sit at the table to sign. A fantastic light was being used which created this almost ethereal image on the screen of Osho bent over his book 'signing' it. The only sound would be the pen scratching on the paper. They amplified the sound and this awesome rythym of sound would begin to replace what should have ben mere scratching.

The narrator goes onto say that each signature was different (which as Anusheh discovered was wholly true) and so you begin to tune your ear on the scratching and indeed you can pick up the difference. Watching him paint and sign was the most fascinating meditative experience ever.

Its not an easily available tape but let me see if I can find it for you.

Good Morning Aachi,

I am no painter and I dont understand much either but I really like the painting for the colours you have used and the way you have used them in varying shades and intensities. Its also interesting how you have merged the signature with the Universal energy :)

Cheers!

Dear Aachi

I wish I could take credit for that 'critical eye' but actually it was more like a revelation in meditation. I was as surprised because fascinated as I was with his signature I hadn't noticed the figures. Have three pictures of paintings. Am sending those to you today. Jasjit ditto. Aachi's interpretation of Osh's paintings is indeed quite awesome. Funny my next post to him was going to be about trying to find him the video too:-)

Lots of love
anusheh

oops! Sorry. Just re-read the piece and realised that its Osho's painting. Pardon my ignorance!

:)

aachi, your post also made me reconnect to a number of friends who began painting or singing after going through mystical experiments....there is a well known painter in Mumbai, papri bose, who i remember going through a very deep and prolonged silence after a mysticla experience; until one day , she just picked up her brush again and started flowing out effortlessly...everything just fell in place for her....another friend, harinder, who just started writing some astounding lyrics.....a well known serial script writer in television, meenakshi also started a kind of wuto-expression after a deep mystical experience...

fascinating...could have to do something with the opening up of the visuddhi maybe...

* should read experiences instead of experiments...

Jasjit, Anusheh,

would love to have that Video. Thanks.:)

Shubosree, :) I wish I could paint like that.

Sundar, I didnt understand what the opening of the visuddhi means...

and I forgot, I prayed for everyone In Tirumala.

got to run now,

Harb thanks that was a really interesting site. So many more exciting ways for children to learn nowadays.

Aachi thanks for the prayers. The Vishuddhi is the throat chakra and the center of all (creative) expression and communication. It lies at the base of the neck/root of the throat. Artists, poets, singers etc who have a heightened perception of transcendent beauty or a powerful expression of any sort are thought to have an open/flowing vishuddhi. Jasjit has an interesting take on the vishuddhi. Jasjit could you share it here?

This one is for everybody. Enjoy!

tx for ur prayers aartchi...

njoid, anusheh..tx

Thanks Anusheh.

dear Aachi,
i always used to think a painting can be decoded
only by the artist themselves...i also think art directly connects u to ur own innner emotions ...

u hav done a gudd job tryin to find out the inner feelings of Osho...

I just visited Osho commune in Pune...i happened to glance at a painting in the commune and i was enchanted, mesmerized..my eyes relaxed and my heart danced.It was then that i came to know that Osho painted.. and i smiled to myself.Then i searched the whole guest house for his paintings..i could the feel the meditative state in which he painted.
There was also a course "Creativity in the Walkway"..i saw a demo of it.. I've never seen anything more meditatively creative than that..
and after reading messsages on this site.. i can relate to what aachi anushesh have experienced.. a very profound expression....

Dear Shweta,

You have experienced the magic in art of the master. I too went through the same emotion that you went when I frist saw his paitnings.

:)

osho had said: i m the only rascal saint in the world
