✨THE AGONY OF CREATION, ITS ORIGIN AND DEATH PART 1
✨Realizing a creative idea, quite often we are confronted with a situation where at first, everything goes «like clockwork», and then at some point, we get stuck and can’t move forward. This state is sometimes called «the agony of creation». Why does it happen? Why, in some cases, we can easily bring our ideas to life and in others, we are fighting over them and cannot find a resolution? What is the nature of creativity and what does it depend on? We will try to understand these questions by resorting to the teachings of Yoga.
Creativity is not intrinsic to art only!
✨Strangely enough, even if we don’t consider ourselves creative natures — we don’t write manuscripts, music, poetry and we don’t create masterpieces of art, it doesn’t mean that we can’t feel the «agony of creation» because creativity is not an exclusive privilege of artists. Developers, engineers, inventors, scientists, mathematicians and even doctors — anyone who creates something or makes a new discovery may face this difficulty. We all know the funny story of how Newton struggled for a long time over the discovery of his law, until one day an apple fell on his head — and it dawned on him!
«I keep the subject constantly before me, and wait ’till the first dawnings open slowly, by little and little, into a full and clear light.» Sir Isaac Newton, English physicist, mathematician
It turns out that creativity is something broader, going far beyond the common boundaries of our perception of art. Quite often we are not fully aware of the deep essence of the creative process. The teaching of yoga tells us that the ability to create is intrinsic to each one of us from the moment of our own creation.
✨The ability to create is our original ability that we inherited from the Absolute itself!
According to the axioms of yoga, at the time of Creation, the Absolute divided Itself into an infinite number of independent particles — Higher Selves, remaining at the same time a single entity. He endowed each Higher Self with all his qualities and abilities to the full. One such ability is creativity! This ability is colossal, like the Absolute itself and has no limits. But we often do not know about our creative abilities and do not know how to use them. That is because the Absolute gave us complete, unconditional freedom from everything, even from the knowledge of our capabilities. Therefore, we are free to dispose of our ability to create as well as to know nothing about it. It is because of our primordial freedom that we are subject to ignorance and are mistaken in believing that we have some limitations in manifesting ourselves.
If we do not know about the presence of some qualities in ourselves, this does not mean that we do not possess them or there is something we can’t do!
«Do you know the expression ‘you can’t jump above your head’? It’s a delusion. A man can do anything.» Nikola Tesla, Serbian, American inventor and physicist
Will and prana are the necessary components for the creative process!
