Artists - must seek their inspiration in the spiritual world

Anybody has the right, of course, to claim to be an artist. But the true artists are those who are capable of creating and maintaining an inner connection with the divine world. Whether they are painters, sculptors, architects, dancers, musicians or poets, this connection with the divine world is the only thing that will introduce an element of the eternal into their work, which is what gives value to a work of art. Before beginning work, all true creators feel the need to go within and receive the light from above that will illuminate their vision and imagination. The efforts they make to go ever further, ever higher, give them the revelation of true beauty, as well as the possibility to express it and transmit it to others. If, when truly inspired, artists can produce masterpieces, it is because their whole being is suffused with the spiritual light they have received. Only their spirit is capable of producing immortal creations.
