Creation, Artistic and spiritual - both obey the same laws

The whole of civilization is nothing other than a work on matter, and we too have to do this work on the psychic plane, not only on the beings and things outside of us, but also on the matter within us. All our instincts, all our impulses, our thoughts, feelings and desires represent a substance on which we have work to do. In a sense, it is a work of creation similar to artistic creation, as it obeys the same laws. You can even see spiritual work as the true work of creation, for it engages the whole of our being. We project ourselves as high as we can to find order and structure and to catch the purest, most light-filled particles, to make up the matter of our different bodies – our spiritual and psychic bodies, as well as our physical body. This effort must be made day after day, moment by moment. Every day we add a pure colour, a harmonious form, a crystal-clear sound.
