Reindeer Under The Moon


On the first day of Winter every year the Prince of all the Reindeer takes a long walk to the mountains in order to search for Moon Princess.   He searches high and low.   From the bottom of the river, to the peaks of the tallest mountains, and does not stop until he sees her.   Once he does then the days begin to get longer and the world begins to warm up again so that by Spring time the flowers can blossom and the trees all sprout their new leaves.   So if you ever see a handsome reindeer wandering through the snow on the first day of Winter, please point him towards the moon.   Everyone will be grateful to you for it.   :)   Oh and of course, don't forget to wish him a Merry Christmas, and Moon Princess, too!

Six Sacred Questions

There are six sacred questions that you may answer within yourself. However, if you find that you can answer them only with words then you still do not know the answers. The true answers are to be felt by your soul, the center point of your being. Whatever you believe the answers to be with your mind are not the true answers. You can truly answer them only when you have reached the Enlightenment. The questions are:

Who am I?
What am I?
Where am I?
When am I?
How am I?
Why am I?

Remember, if you answer these questions in words then you have not found the true answer. Those ideas you have of yourself, those thoughts, those sentences, are only partial answers, quite shallow really, and ultimately you may discover, if you are successful, that they are merely illusions that stand between you and the truth. Finding the true answers to these questions is the most important thing you can do in your lifetime. If you succeed you will be illuminated and the cares, sorrows and the troubles of this world will no longer have an influence on you. You will see all things in the light of truth and you will have achieved the Enlightenment of Eternal Beauty.

I was driving at the time. I was pondering these questions. Who am I? I did not bother to answer that I am my name, as I am not my name.

I am.

This is the first stage of realization. This is root of your being. It is the root of the Cosmos.

As I drove I suddenly became aware of the sunrise. I suddenly felt the vastness of the spaces around me, and could feel the distances of the clouds hovering above the world from horizon to horizon. The space within which I am is infinite. It is beautiful beyond words or intellectual comprehension. It is the limitless Cosmos.

You have just seen 'Where' you are. This is the second stage of realization. Where you are is not merely at a location on a map, an address or an idea of where you are. Ultimately, you are in the middle of the ever-swirling, everlasting and infinitely beautiful Cosmos. But understanding this intellectually is insufficient. You must see it with your soul. Most people do not ever quite realize this in their lifetime.

It lasted only a moment, but that one moment felt like I had entered Eternity. I was beyond thought, beyond the mental world of ideas. I was in a heavenly world. I was in the paradise of light and beauty.

This first stage of realization is the beginning of the journey. The answer to each question brings you to the next higher level of understanding and awareness, and yet each level is part of one great understanding. Keep going. You will find the answer if you can master patience and self-discipline. You must overcome your false perceptions; you must let go of the illusions of your mind. Once you have found the truth you will know it. It is beyond your mind. You will experience it for yourself. There are no words that can answer these questions truly. There is only the Experience of Enlightenment. It is the most difficult thing in the world to do, but once you have done it, you realize it is the easiest thing in the world to do. Keep going. You will see.

Art Rebellion vs Ronald McDonald

LOL

The Cruel Shoes of Ronald McDonald
Original Article:  Banksy zings McDonald’s
The NYPD’s vandal squad is on the hunt for the notoriously elusive graffiti artist Banksy, who has racked up 16 installments across the city — most of them spray-painted on walls — in what he promises will be a monthlong New York “residency.”
While I don't quite 100% condone vandalism per se, I still think this guy is an Art Rebellion Hero!

Bravo senior! Bravo!

Happy Moon Harvest Day

This turned into a rather successful Art Rebellion a bit later on that evening. Life is surprising that way sometimes.  as it is, if you look carefully you may notice that the drawing has two aspects.   Try tilting your head to the right and open your mind.  Do you see it?

Strangers in the Night



Strangers in the night exchanging glances Wondering in the night What were the chances we'd be sharing love Before the night was through Something in your eyes was so inviting Something in your smile was so exciting Something in my heart told me I must have you Strangers in the night, two lonely people We were strangers in the night Up to the moment when we said our first hello Little did we know Love was just a glance away A warm embracing dance away And ever since that night we've been together Lovers at first sight, in love forever It turned out so right for strangers in the night Love was just a glance away A warm embracing dance away Ever since that night we've been together Lovers at first sight, in love forever It turned out so right for strangers in the night

Fight to Win

Fight to Win - A Commentary For Our Time

Art Rebellion Post Card 1-4


Somewhere in a nondescript location in a large metropolis... Art Rebel strikes again.

This time, however, some Brutalitarian took umbrage at the brazen display of Love-Art, tore it down with his bare fingers and stomped on it. It is regrettable that such creatures must torture themselves so. Art Rebel was neither impressed nor dismayed. He simply took the card and placed it quietly on another post, a little further down the street. He's like that, you know.


To top off the evening Art Rebel did a paper napkin drawing while dining...


Just like that...

Art Rebellion #34


It was a beautiful summer night at the end of July when Art Rebel found himself at a local Japanese restaurant.  He was telling the waiter there about his recent adventures with art collaboration, when the waiter happen to say, "I used to do art, but I haven't done any in a long while".

"I know what you mean," replied Art Rebel.  "We get so busy, there doesn't seem to be time for it anymore.  But still - we should make the time.  Doing art is liberating.  Especially if it's collaborative art."

Well, the waiter was suddenly enthusiastic about this idea.   And so, he and Art Rebel went at it, and in the end a non-descript doorway downtown was adorned with a random act of artwork.
It was great.

Dragon Fish

Once upon a time there lived three Dragon Fish in a fish tank. Wow was it crowded in there! Fortunately, the owner decided that it might be a good idea to move one of the Dragon Fish to another tank next door. So he did. The fish seemed much happier (for Dragon Fish, who never seem very happy actually). But the one by himself was a bit lonely after that and always gazed at the other two in the tank next door. A well. Sometimes life is like that. What can you do?

Well there isn't much to do really.  Just try to understand and maybe show a little bit of compassion I guess.  So Art Rebel decided to draw the Dragon Fish on a paper napkin.  It's a pretty poor drawing, but he was hoping he could show the waitress what Art Rebellion is about.  That way, maybe next time she would have the courage to participate.  It's always far better when the Art Rebellion can include a Collaboration!   That's what Art Rebel lives for.  Collaboration Art is the best kind, really.  Sharing the Liberation.  Nothing beats that.  That's Art Rebel for you.  Always hoping for the best. 

Anyway, then it was time for the restaurant to close.  So Art Rebel took a picture of Mr. Dragon Fish.  He gave his austere look.   But still, one has to admit, Dragon Fish is impressive.  No matter what his mood.
