WORLD May 5, 2000 VNN5927 Comment on this story To Devotees Who Have Interest In Art Projects BY SWAMI B.A. PARAMADVAITI  USA, May 5 (VNN) — Dear Vaisnavas,Please accept our most humble obeisances. All Glories to Sri Guru and Gouranga! All Glories to the World Vaisnava Association! All glories to Sri Krsna, the original Artist! All Glories to all Vaisnava arts and artists! All glories to the ability of the universal language of art to serve the truth, glorify God and help humanity to raise their consciousness.
The Harmony School of Conscious Art has launched a new web site, http://www.consciousart.org. All Vaisnava artists are invited to submit samples of your artwork and biodata to be featured among the galleries of Conscious Artists. For consideration and to submit artwork please email curator@consciousart.org. Please note that the site is currently under construction and as soon as enough material is received, will get a gorgeous graphic design makeover and will be announced broadly on the Internet. What is conscious art and who is a conscious artist? A conscious artist wants to utilize his art to help other people. A conscious artist wants his work to be an instrument of the Absolute Truth. A conscious artist searches for ways to express his sadness about the misuse of this world and its living creatures by misuse of the free will of some people. A conscious artist wants to promote the values of goodness and purity. A conscious artist tries to see the eternal principle behind the mundane duality and tries to show others the way to gain such perception. A conscious artist learns how to distinguish between light and darkness, good and bad, and feels a strong commitment to universal love. A conscious artist appreciates all other conscious artists without discrimination of caste, color, religious background etc. A conscious artist likes to share his inspirations and creations with others. If you feel that one of more of the above descriptions of a Conscious Artist apply to you, we will be happy to include some of samples of your work on Consciousart.org for others to see and to be able to contact you. All artists need promotion, especially if they make their living through their artistic activities. We therefore also invite all art promoters, galleries etc. to try and help humanity by helping our conscious artists and by promoting their work to the people of this world. Consciousart.org accepts any type of art contribution, from architecture to painting, sculpture and even computer art. We consider the language of art very useful to announce the message of love to humanity. Conscious art is beyond sectarian limitation. Beauty, sweetness and love form the substance of the aesthetics in the mode of goodness. We welcome your opinions about your ideas of conscious art and this project in general. We will also include spiritually enlivening writings on our site. We welcome any friend of the Harmony School of Conscious art to recommend any interesting art contribution in any art category which you consider a valuable contribution to the development of consciousness on this planet Earth. We will report such contributions in a section titled "Appreciation of Conscious Art Contributions." Do not hesitate to contact us if you would like to make a suggestion about our program. We also have a Gallery of Conscious Art in Spanish (http://www.vrindavan.org/galeria) and welcome translations of our site, as well as links to sites of other Conscious Artists to be submitted to us for putting a link to their site on our page. Aspiring to be united with you in truth we remain, Swami B. A.
