The single Sanskrit word “prakāśa” is the inspiration for this rich collection.
The Light Of Awareness, The Light of Consciousness, The Light of Creation – these are some of the meanings of “prakāśa”.
The Light of Awareness refers to the potentiality that is held in the void. The subtle pulsating, vibrating field of energy out of which all arises.
In an almost magical process, something, anything, everything, is manifested out of the void. It can only manifest because it is inherently already there, within that full void.
The Light of Creation brings into the world all the entities and objects and sense-impressions that make up the universe. It manifests millions of variations of itself, congealed into form.
Sooner or later, all these manifestations come to an end, dissolve, vanish. What remains are impressions, and even these recede back into potentialities in the void that was the source of their existence. Like a drop of water falling back into the ocean that becomes the ocean, and yet, within the ocean, the drop is always already there.
This series speaks of this whole process - the manifesting, sustaining, dissolving, revealing or concealing of all that is. It speaks of the Light of Creation, of the vibrating energy field that at some point becomes everything we are, see, do.
