DIVINE FRENZY

DIVINE FRENZY...

Since 7 years of age I have been guided in my explorations, studies, discoveries, that have come to be of benefit to self and others. Several years ago I availed myself of the writing of Marsilio Ficino, (1433-1499) "Meditation on the Soul, Selected letters of Marsilio Ficino." Several references were made to a state he called, "Divine Frenzy," a state of heightened inspiration, commitment, and vision of purpose in fulfillment.

It was indeed comforting to read Ficino 's words for they were descriptive of my own experience when a new charge of purpose became known to self. YES, a "divine frenzy," indeed. I took to palette and brush and put forth a watercolor aligned with the, "divine frenzy, '' put forth by Ficino, as here presented. The elation, as I experienced, was codified by words, as here presented. 

This morning I awakened to a "DIVINE FRENZY, " to revelations, to clarity of purpose, to a depth of understanding, all anew. 

DIVINE FRENZY

Wrapped in the rapture of consciousness unbridled... set aflame with an insatiable fire ... the knowing that calls to soul... this the exaltation of BEING...

"And when, after having divested yourself of your mortal body, you arrive at the most pure ether, you shall be a God." Pythagoras

compliance gives way to creative freedom

restriction gives way to expansive understanding

confinement gives way to total liberation

doubt gives way to boundless faith

judgment gives way to BEING

DIVINE FRENZY the breath of soul

spirit winds aflame

cloak of mortal clothing shed

flaring breath of soul as SELF known

alignment, resonance with earth, water, fire, air, either

sacred interplay of sound, light and spirit

ascension real, ascension real.
