A Moment of Awakening - framed

“We think of ourselves as humans searching for a spiritual awakening, when in fact we are spiritual beings attempting to cope with a human awakening. Seeing ourselves from the perspective of the spirit within will help you to remember why you came here and what you came here to do.” Anonymous

For the artist moment of awakening was when she could say to the world that she is an artist with full conviction.

Awakening means suddenly becoming aware of something.

It sounds funny but it is a fact that a lot of you are still in that darkness where you actually have the quality or so called “Talent” but you are absolutely not aware of it. In fact you have been lying to yourself that you are not good at something or that you don’t have that talent at all. What we often forget is we as humans, we inherently have that power of mind, the power of our genes, the power of our persistence, the conviction. That is one thing no-one can take away from us.

“The reason people awaken is because they have finally stopped agreeing to things that insult their soul.” Anonymous

Our current mainstream education system tries to suppress that moment of awakening and tries to keep you busy with the fixed structure, format, syllabus where your whole time and effort are engaged in things which drive you towards a path of producing industrial workers. These so called traditional systems are designed to kill your true calling, to ignore that awareness.

Through this piece of art, artist wants to help the viewer to discover their potential, their liking, their dreams.

This artwork comes from a deep place in Artist‘s heart and mind where she became aware of what she has and what she wants to do in her life. The moment when she believed that she has all the power to do that. Her practice of yoga and meditation helped her take that leap tremendously and she believes that it’s not just one moment but thousands of such a moments of awakening in your life.

“We are ready to awaken when we don’t have any more doubts or any more questions about who we are.” Roxana Jones
