"Paradigm Shift" a nude bronze by Seattle artist Mike Magrath. Currently on display in Burien, WA's Interim Art Space.
The statue stirred a degree of controversy when revealed as some members of the community found the nudity disconcerting.
I'm of the opinion that this response says more about the observer than the art itself.
This is meditation. Do not be confused with the illusion of a "person" present in this experience is the real Meditation. ~M.

Satsang is the encounter with the Truth, the encounter with your Divine Nature, and here we have this investigation of what really matters. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Here we are before this silence ...the finding of this Silence. Truth is what we are, not what with which we identify ourselves in this illusory experience, this dual experience - "I and the world."So, the relationship between consciousness - that is what perceives - and what is perceived, in fact, is an illusion.The body, the mind and the world, as any experience, appear in this Consciousness and they are not separate from It. There is no separation. ~Master Gualberto ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Satsang é o encontro com a Verdade, o encontro com a sua Natureza Divina, e aqui nós temos essa investigação daquilo que realmente importa." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Aqui, nós estamos diante desse Silêncio... da constatação desse Silêncio. A Verdade é aquilo que somos, não aquilo com o qual nos identificamos nessa experiência ilusória, nessa experiência dual - “eu e o mundo”. Então, essa relação entre consciência - que é aquilo que percebe - e aquilo que é percebido, na verdade, é uma ilusão. O corpo, a mente e o mundo, como toda e qualquer experiência, aparecem nessa Consciência e não são separados Dela. Não há nenhuma separação. ~Mestre Gualberto ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #ramanashramgualberto #mestregualberto #satsang #ramana #ramanamaharshi #yogi #gratidão #namaste #god #zen #love #awareness #quoteoftheday #paradigmshift #wellness #Graça #loveandlight #omshanti #goodvibes #meditacao #pazinterior #osho #freedom #awakening #om #meditation #enlightenment #buddha #papaji ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This foto symbolizes the possible coming of a new age. As resources like oil are getting scarce, the shift to new renewable energy represents also a shift in power.
What everyone deeply yearns is this remembrance: the remembrance of the Natural State, which is free from fear, free from conflict, free from all despair, all grief, all resistance that thoughts produce. This is the Realization of Liberation. ~M. Gualberto⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Fique apenas nessa vulnerabilidade de Ser. Ser o que É, agora, nesse instante. O que todos anseiam profundamente é essa lembrança: a lembrança do Estado Natural, desse estado livre do medo, livre de conflitos, livre de todo esse desespero, de toda essa aflição, de toda essa resistência que o pensamento produz.

Nem mesmo o que parece ser real de fato é. É irreal aquilo quetemporariamente surge e logo se vai, como os sentimentos, assimchamados: felizes, conflitivos, afetivos, conturbados, de sofrimento, de ansiedade, de medo, de depressão, de tristeza, de qualquer tipo. Você é essarealidade que abraça tudo isso. Olhe com cuidado o que estamosdizendo: você é essa Presença, que é a Verdade amorosa queabraça tudo isso. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Satsang com Mestre Gualberto⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Not even what appears to be real, in fact, is. It is unrealistic what temporarily arises and, soon, is gone, such as feelings so called: happiness, conflicting, emotional, troubled, anxiety, fear, depression, sadness, etc. You are this reality that embraces everything. Look carefully to what we are saying: you are this Presence, which is the Loving Truth that embraces all this. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Satsang with Master Gualberto. ▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #ramanashramgualberto #mestregualberto #satsang #ramana #ramanamaharshi #yogi #gratidão #namaste #god #zen #love #awareness #quoteoftheday #paradigmshift #wellness #Graça #loveandlight #omshanti #goodvibes #meditacao #pazinterior #plenitude #freedom #awakening #om #meditation #enlightenment #buddha #satchitananda #mindfulness
"The invitation here is to be alone, that is the true loneliness, not this loneliness that is centralized in the personality, in which, among the crowd, the person feels depressed, anguished, afflicted - that is how the personality feels itself. The point is: Discover fast the importance of being alone. I'm not saying to isolate yourself, but to stay by yourself, among everything and everybody. To stay alone! There, there is the great key, a powerful key that opens many doors!" ~M. Gualberto ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Descubra a importância de ficar só! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "O convite aqui é para estar só, que é a verdadeira solidão, não essa solidão centrada na personalidade, em que, em meio à multidão, a pessoa se sente deprimida, angustiada, aflita - é assim que a personalidade se sente. O ponto é: descubra rapidamente a importância de ficar só. Eu não estou dizendo isolar-se, mas sim ficar só, no meio de tudo e de todos. Ficar só! Aí está a grande chave, uma poderosa chave que abre muitas portas!" ~M.

Paradigm Shift was an exhibition that Mark Cowie and I had organised in 2007 at Spring Hill, Brisbane.
I exhibited clay sculptures from my series "What is an Angel but our Ghosts in Drag".
This exhibition featured works from 4 other artists:
Mark Cowie - Nudes in Acrylic;
Liam Buchana - Surreal Dreamsapes in oils & charcoal;
Kieran Forster- Abstracts in acrylic; and
Brent Geoghegan - Brisbane's Subterranean photography.
6 x 9 foot wheatpaste by street artist ELBOW-TOE.

June 13th - July 13th, 2008
Opening Reception: Friday, June 13th, 2008
A quick shot as we passed each other on the street without any interaction short of a smile and a photograph.
There were other things on my mind.
I was looking for Professor Bikenstein.
I had heard on the news that the scientists at CERN... that really big particle accelerator in europe... that they had said that they detected neutrinos flyin' around at 0.0025 percent faster than the speed of light.
Some people were claiming this proved Einstein's theory of special relativity wrong.
Bikenstein would have an opinion on it and I was curious what he would say.
I thought it was a bit premature... I mean the speed of the neutrinos as recorded by CERN was just barely faster than the speed of light...
a hair over 180,000 miles per second... which is light's speed.
The neutrino that CERN clocked woudda gone just an extra 450 miles in that second.
180,450 miles per second.
Big whip... the speed of light is six hundred seventy million six hundred sixty one thousand six hundred and twenty nine miles per hour... 670,661,629mph.
That's like ten million times faster than the speed limit on the expressway in case you wondered.
The speed of the neutrino CERN clocked was six hundred seventy two million three hundred thirty eight thousand two hundred and eighty three miles per hour.
That's only one million six hundred seventy six thousand six hundred and fifty four miles per hour faster... a mere 1,676,654mph difference.
No self respecting cop would even write you a speeding ticket for that kind of 'infraction.'
It'd be like gettin' a ticket for doin' 55.1375mph in a 55mph zone!
Come on!
And if he did write me the ticket the first thing I'd ask the cop is how he clocked me and if he calibrated his ladar gun that day.
Any Cook County judge would laugh that one out of court.
'Yerrrrrr honerrrrr... my client informs me dat in fact he just erroneously put oversized tires on his spaceship prior to dis citation bein' wrongly written against him and in fact it caused de errah to his speedometer which is da reeeson why we are here today... my client pleads not guilty and is in fact da victim here.'
Any cop would know that ticket would be just a waste of paper.
'Do you know why I pulled you over?'
'Uh... I was only going one million six hundred seventy six thousand six hundred and fifty four miles per hour faster than the speed limit officer... can't we just make it a warning?'
'Have you been drinking tonight?'
'Two beers officer.'
'Why is she passed out?'
'She drank the good stuff.'
'Tequila?'
'Yes sir officer.'
'Let's slow it down.'
Light is some fast shit.
Einstein emphatically considered that the speed of light was sort of a 'universal speed limit' when he layed out his theory.
If the neutrino broke that barrier does it mean he was wrong?
Or does it mean that the fundamentals of the macro-universe and the micro-universe are just different?
But how could there be two sets of rules?
I don't know.
How do the CERN scientists even know if they got the right neutrino?
I wouldn't wanna count Einstein out yet.
That dude had an idea... layed out this formula and the next thing you know there was a mushroom cloud over the desert.
When's the last time you had an idea like that?
It'd be different if the neutrino CERN pulled over was cruisin' around at double the speed of light or something.
Then there'd certainly be some fundamental flaw in the theory of special relativity.
What if their clocks are just off?
Fermilab made the same announcement a few years ago... and they were wrong... their clocks were proven inaccurate.
Or if CERN is right in their observation does it simply prove Einstein's theory correct in that when something moves faster than the speed of light that it's actually travelling through time?
Like a hair forward in time?
I think that humankind had better get itself ready for a new understanding of the universe within a few years.
Big changes are coming.
It could be pretty cool.
When we understand the universe within the frame of a new paradigm there's gonna be a revolution in thought that occurs that's gonna change everyone's lives whether they think about this stuff or not.
It's gonna be a major paradigm shift.
It's not too far over the horizon.
I never found Professor Bikenstein that night.
I went and shot The Buddies concert instead.
There was life before karezza, and there is life with karezza.
This has been, by far, the largest paradign shift in both of our lives.
See synergyexplorers.org/ for more details on karezza.

We share our lives in several areas: physical, emotional, intellectual, financial, social, emotional, political and so on - the divided and subdivided life.
