Vany of my friends have a strong will, they are creative, they design, make, act, do... They confront the world with their own will and add themselves to it or refuse to accept it as it is. This generates creativity, change. It is the power of Shakti, the creative energy of the universe.
I am different, I observe, I try to understand the world as it is. I don't want to change it, even though I see a lot of suffering and injustice, I observe, I listen... It all seems to me to be a question of perspective. Changing your own position means seeing things differently, I don't have the urge to change the world. A work of art, a cultural configuration, a temple, a birthday party, a planned vacation, a project idea... these are all things that I see, I like to participate, help and get involved. But I don't have this urge to create and I always ask myself why that is. Is there something missing in me? Do I have no driving force within me, no will to create?
It seems to me that my way of creating lies in meditation, it is the way I change my own perception, change my perspective, see the world differently, focus on a different aspect. Is this a form of passivity, of procrastination, or a form of reflection, a power of consciousness, a manifestation of the spirit?
The world needs different perspectives of a consciousness that holds it together, in the truest sense of the word. It is the writers who create worlds. Schriftsteller is a beautiful German word, because its root means that someone uses writing to present, set out or depict, set up and set down, impute, juxtapose something. In the act of writing, a world is created that does not attempt to change the world itself. The presented writing, a text, can change the world if it is read and stimulates action, but the text itself is pure consciousness, the writing merely the medium, it can be translated and transcribed conditionally, set to music, or illustrated... (This paragraph is mistranslated by Google translate)
A contemplative consciousness, in concentration and meditation, is a kind of writing.
