Garden of Thought

Fractal art. Buddha said it best when he said, The mind is everything. What you think you become. The mind is a very precious garden that needs to be nourished and weeded. If you don’t take care of your garden, it will become cluttered and overrun. Sow good seeds, nourish and tend to your garden. It’s like the Bible says, you reap what you sow.

    “Organic matter generates purely from the desire of the mind to manifest idea in matter. That Cosmic desire to create form produces the desired form. Desire is the motivating force of all Creation”. from The Secret of Light by Walter Russell – 1947. Dave another brilliant creation; I love the depth in this piece, the vibrant colors, beautiful presentation! Your light is really shining!

    Well said, I love the analogy. Pretty colors; nice garden in your work dave, your garden of thought must be well kept. I need to tend mine; it got too cluttered with visa panics and work deadlines :P though that is over with now.

    A wonderful design…molten gold with an electrical current running through it….dynamic! My interpretation is a bit ‘off’ compared to the title, but I see such a lot of fluidity in this. Excellent work :-)
