This ribbon is a new piece of art, a perspective change, a look at this is like to see, to be visual, with sound, to see sound supernaturally.
Constant focus on naad sound, psychic-mystic sound, eventually causes the yogi to see sound, to actually perceive sound with the visual interest of the core self.
Seeing this art in print, is a relief of a great responsibility which is to bring this type of perception into prominence among the human beings.
Great, Sir Paul Thanks again!

Thank you for the nice review i totally agree with this but did not possess the language or understanding to describe it....but this is true that through mystic side sound has a visual counterpart. It also has a textural taste and Fragrance aspect well, listening is doorway. So is "looking. In a way it's like my old friend Andy Abraham used to tell people who say that Bob Dylan can't sing.: he would tell them , "you can't listen"!
And Thank you for taking the time to look at the work in a serious manner. The interesting thing about this, is that for years now I've been looking at Your artwork
And not really understanding the viewpoint or perspective. Eventually I found myself in a dimension where, the repetitive
Patterns that run through your work, strange colors and other worldly shapes and forms of a sudden made sense in terms of sound and light.
These last several banners were an attempt to clarify that region of consciousness. A similar thing used to happen when I would look at those old time Hindu airbrush posters. Initially the colors seemed garish and overdriven. They felt like symbols of something, that compared to the reality, seeded like cartoons of a world that generated a resemblance, but unless one had the experience would seem like science fiction or the product of the culture from which they sprung, which, I suppose is true in a mundane sense but there's more to it than that.
In a way one could say that concentration is like listening and meditation is like Hearing, samadhi extending the two into mystic seeing accompanied by insight and mystic understanding.
In a way, each sense is really taking in certain specific kinds of information about "something". As in the old example of the five children looking through a hole in the fence..each hole is a sense...through one sense, one smells the elephant, another experiences the texture through the skin organ, and so on...until the question arises as to what is that whole object and who is getting the experience....
The naad as far as my research tells me is the same thing as the illustration depicts. Only with the naad, the partial experience of the audio aspect is merely a doorway to where that sound originates and who or what is producing that sound. It only becomes complicated when you look scientifically at what is sound itself in the first place.
