Grey Matters
I have loved Alex Grey's work ever since I was blessed enough to have come across his book, the Sacred Mirrors. In that magnificent book are several paintings that "speak" volumes about the spirit, the soul, and the inevitable evolution of the being that is human. I use it in a lot of the classes that I give because there is something about Alex Grey's art that really knocks things into place regarding the Truth that we are spiritual beings now.

Of course, there are those people who don't want you to think that this is true. They want you to think that you were created out of sin...that you're anything but Love, Life, and Light and when I first "got on" this spiritual path, I used to try and defend my belief as to why we were primarily spiritual, but now I don't care. People are entitled to their delusions. Besides, I don't believe that we are all on a spiritual journey, any more....

I know we're on one.

This DVD really goes straight into the mind, down into the heart, straight into the soul. After watching this, you actually remember that your Source is the Great Light...that you are within this Light now...that you are this Light. The only reason why most of us have a hard time accepting this is because we have a vested interest in these identities that we created. We forget that our personalities, our behaviors, our egos have been totally manufactured, but our True Identity was created in the "beginning". When God said, "Let there be Light..." You and I were born with everything else. We're One with God now. Instead of balking at this, try and get silent within yourself...try for one hour just breathing in and breathing out without your ego trying to intrude upon your attention to your breathing...forget the hour, try just five minutes of clear, intentional breathing in and breathing out...put a dent, a break in the cycle of thinking that you're just this clod of biodigradable matter. You are Spirit. You are Life. You are what you call God. You are God's breakthrough. You are an Inlet as well as an outlet to all that is Holy...

This DVD is a must for your transformation toolkit. I really can't put into words how valuable it truly is...but know that behind these words is the Same Living Spirit that guided us to being here and now with each other...

Peace & Blessings,
john 'the Light Coach'

Transport to Expanded Dimensions of Healing
If sacred art is new to you, or you're already familar with Alex Grey's work, Artmind is an essential foundation to your library. Inspired by a health expert (Psychiatrist), Artmind and two of Alex's books (Sacred Mirrors and Transfigurations) are used as "assistance" for me to describe different dimensions of my healing process that are difficult to put into words during my sessions. Artmind is fascinating in that Alex reveals intimate details about how he became a visionary artist, and opens his heart as a renowned teacher to educate the viewer about different spiritual traditions and how sacred art can empower your body's innate healing processes. Also included in Artmind is a gallery of Alex's paintings that the film maker displays with sensational animation design and music. When watched carefully, "magic moments" happen, where the room fills with a luminous light, and an effable Presence.

I thank Alex, and his wife Allyson, for having the courage to be initiated into sacred art by participating in years of research, and safely unveiling it to the world in a co-creative process, which comes from a place of peace and light that flow through them.

Captivating and Honest
A visual treat and intimate interview. Sacred Art truley capures the essence of the artist. A Glimpse into the creation process and an opportunity to witness phenonomal Artwork in the making.
