Customer Reviews
Artwork is amazing - but is it really sacred?
I was disappointed to learn that the inspiration for Alex's art comes to him through LSD trips. I have seen the walls breathing on an LSD trip and it doesn't mean that they really do, or that it was sacred. Still, his artwork is amazing and the DVD is really well produced. And maybe, as I thought on my LSD trip, that THAT state was reality, and normal mental state is not.
Engrossing and Beautiful
I was somewhat familiar with Mr. Gray's work before viewing this DVD. I found it a great experience to become more familiar with Mr. Gray's art and commentaries. Mr. Gray's technical skills seem finely tuned from a lifetime of creating his art. I think he can't be considered a "master artist" in the technical sense. His art transcends realities. What makes him unique is his prospective" modern day thinking modality brought forward to a plane full of light and life.
Visualize the Energy Field
Artwork accomplishes more than the eye can see, it motivates intentions, and activates emotional ideas into action. It all started with cave paintings and has continued to escalate from those days forward.
So we hear about this energy field and what can become accomplished by utilizing its energy, but now with this DVD- you can see what it may look like. This is very helpful for everyone-- you have to have some sense of what it may look like in order to take those next important steps...
Altering Reality!
A visual effect of Quantum energies, how much more motivating can artwork become?
Oh he didn't...
Did he really create such a large painting of the energy grid?
Yeap, he sure did, it's all out in the open now, and I agree with what he said, he's been getting all kinds of responses from others who claim they saw the same thing he did in this re-creation of a vision.
When you think of the word "Sacred", don't consider it as ancient artifacts, change your definition to encompass the sacred of the here-and-now. His paintings are a source that is removing the dust from the once hidden knowledge that is now resurfacing, and if you want to see what it looks like, get this DVD!
