(Re)connecting with Gods Creativity

[cle103]

It feels like my "best" ideas as an artist are coming from altered states. I remember tripping and just experiencing God as absolute Creativity, infinite potential for perfect ideas. But tapping into that potential sober proves ehm... difficult. 

Also had a great idea for a painting come to me via an awakening experience during a dream recently. 

I still get ideas day to day but they have a different quality to them. Really trying not to judge them as better or worse, just noticing. For example I like painting portraits, almost like creating characters. Whereas my altered state ideas are much more nature focused, explosive, not human centered.

I'm already doing the usual. Slowing down life, meditating, time in nature, ... it just feels like this other tier of ideas is in a different dimension entirely. 

So the question comes up: How can one tap back into this well of Gods creativity, without relying on psychedelics?

Just do it.

Just strive to create new things as much as you can, of course it won't be a linear progression, somedays you'll be very inspired and you feel like the greatest artist alive, other times you may find yourself on the other end of the spectrum, ideally you would want to detach from unconscious self jugement, getting out of your way and just letting creativity take it course.

 

What also helps is to play the long term game, try to view your whole life as a journey towards mastery, this would push/inspire you to put in consistent work, always view yourself as a student of the craft and always seek to make progress and learn new things.

 

Inpiration I believe is not in our hands, meaning, most of us can't summon it at will, so the best thing is to be ready for when it strikes, of course I find it that the more you advance in your craft, the more inspired overall you'll be, and the less you'll rely on inpiration as an external force and rather tap into internal things,

 

Last thing I would add is that if you want godly levels of creativity (i.e similar to the kind you get on psychedelics) then Falling in love, or rather Being Love is the way, try to take your whole life towards the direction of love, and watch how miraculously inpirational anything could be.

You realize that God (YOU) are imagining psychedelics.

You don't consume psychedelics, YOU ARE PSYCHEDELIC.

Yeh, I think this is the way. It just feels like crawling whilst knowing you could fly on another plane. Hmm. What I feel  I'm lacking is a way, process or method to tap into that infinite well on a more regular basis.

Sure, in the ultimate sense. But that doesn't change mundane day to day creative work (for me at least).

Wrote this as I’m going back to my “mundane, creative job”! 

No more potholes or crocodiles stopping me today, begone!
