NUDISM And SPIRITUALITY
Nudism and spirituality (in the modern sense) together bring us closer to Nature. Meditation is like inward prayer, communing with our inner being, our life spirit, making us happy and healthy.

Return to DiscussionsThis is so beautiful?!!How do you get the visions? Through meditation or with the help of plants?
Many of the Subjects of The Spiritual Painting Series: "Life-Journey Metaphors" really came from some Recurring Dreams that I had over a few Years that Actually Manifested in A Very Moving Event that Occurred in My Life.
Interestingly, I was asked to participate in a Retreat at a Mountain Campground that once was Home to: the Black Mountain Arts College ( in Western North Carolina ). It was with a Group called: " Collaborations in the Creative and The Sacred" with a Wide Range of Creative People, Teachers, Counselors, and Clergy - who gathered to explore the Human Condition through Acts of Creativity - in Writings, Art, Music, Dance, and Drama through Symbolic Rituals and Revealings !
Actually, A Lot of the Rituals that I was Asked to Participate In were "Mirrors of The Dream Visions" that I'd Had for Years - and They Actually Manifested Themselves Very Close to My Dream-Images and through the Sketches and Paintings that had earlier Poured Out of Me TOO.
And, The Retreat was Particularly Significant in It's Timing for Me also - as It followed a Period of Time that I had Studied and Worked with An International Psychotherapy Institute ( for 4 Years ) where I Studied Psychology &, Psychiatry, Religion & Theology, and Spirituality and Theosophy - and Actually had Creative Opportunities to Work to "Help-People - Help Themselves" with Personal Growth and Transitions so, This Retreat was Like "Ordination Into A Life-Service of LOVE & LIGHT for Me" !
You Know - It is Quite Remarkable that My Life-Journey has Been So Full of Wonder - Like This Happenstance of "Collaborations" Occurring At Such A Perfect Unfolding of Time in My Life ! But There have Been SO Very Many More - and I Believe That There Will ALWAYS Be MORE - And THERE ALWAYS ARE !!!
Truth Is That I Really Do Try to Keep An Open Mind-Heart, Soul, and Body because "Doing The Personal-Homework" to Keep My Wave-Length Clear of Static and Interference is SO WORTH IT - So I Can Be Ready to BE ONE With THOSE MAGIC MOMENTS OFFERED To ME - and It Really Can Be A Way Of LIVING And LOVING - That You Can Have Faith and Trust to COUNT-ON - Over and Over and OVER AGAIN. YES, IN THE UNFOLDING OF LIFE , It is Really Incredible To Know That We Can Be Led to Perfect Times With Perfect Wonder and Touching Lives That Are Significant - and THEM TOUCHING ME ! COULD LIFE AND LOVE BE ANY BETTER - I JUST DO NOT KNOW ??? !!!
HEY WORLD, I Am GRATEFUL THAT I CAN LIVE NAKED EXTERNALLY - LIKE I LIVE NAKEDLY WITH MY MIND, HEART, AND SOUL AND EMBRACE "LOVE AND LIGHT" and Whatever's Next - "NAKED-AND-TRUE" !!!
Thanks Harold, for your enlightening letter! It sounds like an amazing experience (I don't suppose there was any nudism involved?) I think it's down to each person how much they gain from events like the one you described; it sounds like there was something for everybody. I'm sure that you yourself gained a lot from it. Your pictures are beautiful, by the way.
Thank You for Your Kind and Thoughtful Reply. Yes, We Each have Special and Unique Journey to ( Hopefully ) LEARN And GROW-THROUGH and Perhaps With Those Challenges that are Presented to Us to Encounter and Experience, and Work-Through That-We-Turned-The-Challenges Into-Opportunities, and That Our "Loving-Cups" Overflowed onto Others with BLESSED POSITIVES.
Thanks for The Kind Comments on The Art that I have Shared Here - and I am So Very Grateful that I Can Be "The Vessel that It is Poured-Through" !
