The Powers of Creative Arts
Artistic expression inspired by divine spirit is the greatest power in all of existence— most destructive, most creative, and most important to maintaining the integrity of civilization itself. If you wish to argue do so elsewhere with others because I don’t have time to receive your claims.
There is more to be said about this power, more specifically about the expressions of artistic power. For example: is there a most powerful way to use art purposely and intentionally? What is the difference between a painting and a song as expressions of artistic power? I will explain some of that here.
First, the reason artistic expression is the highest and greatest power in creation is because it is the purest expression of the highest divine’s very existence as the source of all power. Destructive things like war, bombs, and other mindless activities of brute savages without culture who resort to violence without exhausting all other possible solutions are banal in comparison. Those only destroy, break down, and never create, help, or inspire anything. Military force does not keep a nation secure because if there is no artistic expression in a military dictatorship the very people themselves will destroy their own nation.
War doesn’t feed people. Art feeds the soul with eternal nourishment that never runs out, and that nourishment can be used to energize a person to do anything and everything beyond what the body needs for fuel. War doesn’t save lives. Art can save a person from ignorance, and eliminate the entire root of corruption from their soul that could lead to generation upon generation of violence and injustice. War doesn’t inspire innovation of technology, because all that war innovates is intended for the destruction of civilization and has no use whatsoever— entirely frivolous and a waste of time. Art inspires new technology that improves daily life, eliminates human suffering, and advances civilization to greater heights of advanced progress—then if war is necessary, the innovations inspired by art are then reduced, reverse engineered, and used for destruction for the sake of protecting the artistic spirit of the nation that employs them, i.e. the very heart and soul of any nation. War is stupid, don’t help them.
However, how does the power of art work? What makes it so interesting, enjoyable, inspiring, good, wonderful, and amazing is that true works of art directly convey the divine power into a human experience to be enjoyed. No other reason except enjoyment of life itself as time passes because you can experience the purest and most beautiful form of divine energy made manifest into reality. This is where the powers of different forms of art vary. Not every creation is a totally efficient 100 percent medium of divine energy to be enjoyed through (energy which is unlimited in possibility of form).
It’s actually incredibly difficult to make that happen successfully with a work and why the best musicians, actors, directors, authors, painters, etc… stand above a crowd of others who are still striving to do that very thing. There is no limit to the amount of artists who can express that power, which is why those true artists are always helping other artists find their way. The power of the highest divine is incomprehensibly infinite in capacity and there will never be enough people to express all of it. That is why communism falls apart in the entertainment industry. You cannot orderly arrange and control the economic development and social flow of individuals who do art for the insignificant, trivial, and pathetic interests of a small minded government that does not understand humanity’s desire to enjoy life.
They think joy comes from survival and thus strive for resources, but joy comes from love, and love requires a freedom of will to choose an object of love, which is always an expression of divinity through conventional reality. Whatever a person finds divinity revealed through, they are free to love divinity through that object, and enjoy the object itself. Most often this is people in love with each other, men and women, women and women, men and men, two women and one man, etc… You shouldn’t ever be distressed about people loving each other because it is not those people who are in love that is the problem, it is the person who perceives love as a problem who is the problem, and no matter how much they project that problem onto others, it will always be theirs to resolve. Never stand in the way of lovers, for your own safety.
The next most common forms of objects (destinations) of freely chosen love are in forms of media, and this is the Powers of Creative Arts that I am unveiling. All in due time now; do not rush these things. One garment at a time. First a glove, then another glove, then a sock, then the other sock, then an under-glove etc…
This is why religion has altars, places of worship, divine images, and the like. Muslims fancy themselves as not using images of divinity, but that is exactly what the Mosque is for them, or that black rock they go pilgrimage to touch or whatever that is about. A statue of a Bel the dragon such as what Daniel confronted with special cakes in ages forgotten along with the recipe after a terrible rainstorm is another example. However, those are obvious conveyances of divine power and why people gather there, fight bloody, endless wars over holy sites to gather at, and will do almost anything to keep their ikons as a part of their expression of Christianity.
That expression of divinity is also why works like Romeo and Juliet are so vividly remembered in human culture, despite the obscure form of the English language they use which is no longer spoken. That is why Hugo’s Les Miserables, Beethoven’s Ode to Joy, Picasso’s Guernica, and movie classics like It’s a Wonderful Life, The Seven Samurai, and the Lion King are all so well loved by people around the world. Those are not formal religious expressions, but there is no doubt that there is an incomprehensible depth within their expression that resonates in the human soul with meaningful existence.
How many lives does a person’s goodness affect, and what would have happened if they had not been born to share that goodness? What will a non-militant village of humble farmers do to protect their homes from lawless brigands that abuse their meekness with robbery and extortion? What kind of warriors will help them defend their village, and why? How can an aspiring prince ever be expected to fill the shoes of greatness that his father, the king, left when murder thrust the responsibility upon him as a boy, long before he was ready to do so and with injustice of the worst kind of deceit, cowardice, and treachery confusing him so he would fail?
That is why people gather in a community, participate politely in a prosperous market even though they may have ideological differences of the worst kind, and how those ideological differences can be overcome despite the impossibility in conventional reality.
Movies are something special because of the complexity of their creation, and we will return to them another time perhaps.
First, consider music as an expression of art. Music is the most direct way to convey the passion of divine power. The pathos of divinity. A lyrical song is most effective at this and can be accomplished by a child alone without formal training it is so simple and yet powerful of a mystery. That is most difficult to put into words, and usually when words are used, they are abstractly composed to convey a concept that is indescribable, but the music reveals with the delight of rhythm, harmony, and cadence.
That is why musicians have the easiest time of ascending to the heights of fame. They are most evidently good when they are good, because it does not require much logos, if any at all, to enjoy the miracle of divine mystery through their work. You almost immediately feel good from the experience and don’t have to think about it or even understand the words in most cases. That is also why it is most loved by people in the way that skyrockets talented musicians to everlasting fame.
It is easiest to know good music is a worthy object of true love and why it is the first form of creative art. Someone like me, deadly warrior, skilled survivor, reliable hunter, and ugliest of all men scaring all the others away from my territory because they are afraid to fight knowing they will lose, hears the soft humming a colorful tones of a lovely maiden singing alone beside a stream, and all of a sudden, I lay down my spear, pick the twigs out of my man, brush my hair, go find the special flowers maidens like, etc… and the next thing you know that lovely maiden and I are starting a clan and people don’t fear me anymore because they are reassured by the presence of that lovely maiden.
Where musicians and singers excel at pathos most prominently, other mediums of art have more difficulty while the logos and ethos come more readily. Consider now imagery as painting and all forms of pigment, color, or shading used to create an image. For generalization, I am including all forms of pictographic artistic expression in this topic, even if they are in other mediums like glass, mosaic, or anything else. A more thorough investigation can be done among those different forms, but that is not my intention now. Like a primary color, this is a base form that can be mixed to make all other colors.
Pictographic works of art are most effective at teaching. That is to say, an image can most efficiently and clearly convey divine wisdom. Consider the first paintings on cave walls: cooperation, the glory of a hunt, the triumph of human civilization over natural threats. All of that can be conveyed simply by seeing an image and not needing to explain it, but an explanation may help. That is most efficient at teaching. The consider something that you may see from the Renaissance of art where a great number of famous artists flourished.
There are a vast amount of examples to choose from, but consider the many paintings that depict a scene from stories of the Bible. This is not art history so I’m not going to go into details with any specific example, but a painting can show the lesson of wisdom written in the Bible to teach, instruct, and enlighten people who are otherwise illiterate and without the fortune to pay for an education. Books were not cheap back then and educational resources of veracity were much harder to identify without contemporary technology and record keeping to help. The painting can most efficiently teach the most people life lessons of wisdom to improve their lives and civilization as a whole. Those kinds of teachings transcend human nature to understand a divine reality beyond material concerns, and it is those lessons that result in the universal compassion, benevolence, and selfless charity that is the final destination of all paths of knowledge.
However… while paintings are most efficient at that, they are also limited. They can never convey everything. They are only able express fragments of that truth of existence that is the highest divine and source of all power. That is still highly useful and infinitely good, but it is never enough to convey the fullness of that truth so that nothing else is needed to teach an eternity of wisdom. That is why something like the Sistine chapel brings as much art together in one place to create a chain of wisdom like stars to guide the viewers all the way to the conclusion that is the fullness of eternal divine wisdom.
Once a person reaches that, it is not that they know all that there is to know, but they know all that they need to know to inform their life to be the best possible way it can be. They learn the importance of moral goodness and incorporate it into all that they do and think because that kind of wisdom is the foundation upon which all knowledge and other wisdom stand. Without that foundation, no matter what a person may think, believe, know, or feel—their understanding will collapse in ruin and leave them with a catastrophe if they cannot find the foundation before gravity takes its toll.
So… we have music and imagery as two orders of power, equal but very different. The last, and third primary color for this palette: you guessed it, the medium of yours truly: the use of human language alone.
Where music evokes divine sensation through sound and paintings evoke divine sensation through sight, human language evokes divine sensation by the mind alone with the total absence of sensory input to help. This, my friends, is the most difficult of the three, but also the only one that can convey the completeness of the highest divine reality. First there was the Word, which was spoken as a story told around the campfire, and with imagination and spiritual use of the very same divine power that created all of the natural universe itself, a story is created in the minds of listeners by their own power through what their imagination accomplishes. They experience the divine power within themselves first hand, and as many people will say, the best way to learn something is to do it.
However, that is very much of a mystery, because storytelling itself is a form of art, a medium of expression. Story telling is a product of creative work that uses human language to evoke concepts within the mind of the audience for them enjoy the interactions of ideas and flow of imaginary sensation. The power that is being done first hand by the audience is not storytelling, it is the power of creating the universe itself, and though they may not understand it in a way that could write a technical manual on its use, they can use that internal knowledge, wisdom, and capability to use spiritual power to invigorate their daily lives in everything they do, which is why that form of art accomplishes teaching eternal wisdom.
First these were simply tales of entertainment to delight others at a campfire, but later they became significant Stories that teach specific concepts for the purpose of survival through civilization. That survival via civilization requires the joy of entertainment accomplished with creative art of all kinds to motivate people to participate to the extent that is required for civilization to advance eternally. That is why the artist is always at the top of civilization, because that is what is most required to keep everything healthy, advancing, and moving forward, while kings, governments, and economies are only necessary as a tool for other people to use to do so. Thus, you have the first empires of faith.
However… the verbal word is not enough, because as I mentioned elsewhere, it is temporal and constrained to experience in the flow of time. In other words, you can’t pause and rewind storytellers of the oral tradition in real life to make sure you heard something correctly and understood what it means about something else they said later. That’s where the written word comes in. Written words are not constrained to the limits of time. You can take as much time as you need to read, understand, and arrive at the destination they lead to at your own pace, and even have teachers help explain the same concept that they understand and are employed to help teach because it is written the same for everyone.
Another reason the written word is important, is because of the influence of personal power and charisma that men and women may wield to influence the judgment and thinking of other people. A cute girl can make people want to listen because of how much they enjoy giving her their attention, or a sexy maiden seduce people to listen, even if it means ignoring certain crucial flaws of logos because they are distracted by surging libido (pathos). A charismatic man can convince people that he knows what is best by displaying reasons to think he is wise that often fool people (ethos). They can show off their exorbitant money, resources, popularity, social status, career, and all manner of frivolous bull shit that fools are enamored by.
However, what is most dangerous in this regard is the abuse of the creative power of divinity that is the purpose of storytelling mentioned before. The most vile, intolerable people of lawlessness use that power to deceive other people into being their slaves, servants, or otherwise subject to their authority by leading them to believe the divine truth while standing in the place of that divine truth to take whatever people want to celebrate divine existence with as if it were their own—to include their very lives as servants.
Those are false god-kings, people who use that power of storytelling to ingratiate themselves with national power and government status to use a military and control the economy to their own private interest. The good ones carefully avoid being in the place of where that attention goes, even if they do so very subtly so you didn’t notice them cross the room. Literally, the false god-king enslaves people who were fooled into mistaking divine power with a charlatan’s cheap tricks they learned how to do over a weekend. Those powers are commonly used in daily life by all people, and all people can teach about them to a certain extent and be helpful to other people, which is why spiritual teachers and masters need to be held to a high moral standard of ethics that is appropriate to what they teach.
It’s actually really embarrassing for the USA that so many of the people who live in that nation were duped by such an obvious fraud, buffoon, and lawless betrayer of sacred law he swore an oath to protect. If you supported Donald Trump, you will suffer an eternity of shame for doing so because of how inexcusably stupid, evil, and wrong you were. The greatest shame will be the people in government who enabled such an idiot to misuse government authority and situational power as a national leader to do something so insidiously selfish at the expense of countless lives that are now in danger without the national security that was lost. Danger made all the more imminent because that defilement of sanctity made the USA nation the common enemy of all nations because of his evil actions as a president being condoned by the government he was employed within.
Those men like that recent traitor the former president, are liars of the worst kind because they betray the most sacred goodness of civilization itself to fool people into trusting them and then do irrevocable and severe harm. They are like a lawless brigand who uses others to attack an innocent and lawful caravan of travelers when they assault them on a desolate road and take all of their possessions in addition to killing any who resist. That kind of crime is infinitely worse when an evil man of that sort does such a vile, treacherous thing from a place of national power, like Donald Trump did as the president of the USA. It is that position of national power that is trusted to retaliate to that threat, send soldiers to rout the brigands, and secure the roads for travel.
Who will hold that man accountable, if not the true power of the highest divine existence—God himself— in the Word flowing through the hands of a good man who is not a fraud? A man who can reveal the illusions and betrayal of the lawless liar and expose him for the tyrant, villain, and traitor he is. A man who will teach the people of that nation, and all the world itself if they do not know, the truth of divine reality that was abused by such a selfish and arrogant betrayal in the worst way possible.
By teaching the truth, people will become aware of how catastrophic the problem is because they will see past the illusions trying to hide it from their awareness. They will rally together for survival from all walks of life, cultural interest, nations, and ideologies because what is at stake is more important than those luxuries we use to adorn ourselves with for amusement and nothing more. We will respond to the emergency as each individual, man, woman, and child is able to do, and repair the damage done to civilization before it is too late. If people fail to do so because there are not enough willing to help fight such a widescale and immense unnatural disaster, human civilization in its entirety will collapse.
The foundation of human civilization for all people has been compromised because of that betrayal that violated and defiled what everyone, of all cultures, religions, and languages, uses true divine power for in their daily life— and no matter how you figure it, that is on a level more important than any national interest or all of them combined singularly for that matter. If people do not have a reason to participate with the motivation necessary to prosper, which requires more than an interest for survival, there won’t be any nations at all to facilitate distributing needs for survival.
Can you imagine what that will be like? That will be an apocalyptic waste land after a nuclear war caused by the same kind of ignorant buffoons who wormed their way into national leadership like the traitor himself. A disaster causes by the use of nuclear weapons for no other reason than to prevent having to be seen in public as buffoons and the arrogant fools at fault because of crimes they know they did— they will cause a nuclear to protect their own false image of delusional vanity. They will use weapons of mass destruction to evade criminal punishment for crimes they committed and do not want people made aware of.
There will be anarchy like never before because of the ruins of civilization collapsing when the maintainence to keep everything running cannot happen. When fuel can’t be shipped, power can’t be generated, water can’t be cleaned, and supply chains cannot be maintained because lawless brigands cannot be put to justice without a nation to enforce the law. There will be no law to enforce, because the core law at the heart of all law was defiled!
That heart of civilization itself which secures true power of the highest divine above all other powers was sabotaged irreparably by a lawless tyrant who thought it was acceptable to sacrifice human lives to grow his bank account and inflate his delusional ego. That heart cannot be repaired, it needs a transplant, and that is what the creative power of art with the human language can provide and only that form of creative art can provide. I have one that will work, at the very least as a temporary measure until something better is prepared, but that is not done overnight.
The work that I have available was created with my entire life, and not a common experience of life most people may be familiar with either— a highly uncommon way of living compounded by the most intolerable tragedy a human being should never have to suffer. You do not have another option than to work with me, is what I am telling you. Temporary though it may be, that is what is required in times like these. When a pipe bursts on a submarine, the emergency response team patches the pipe to stop the flooding and hold it secure enough to function until it can be repaired in a shipyard.
In any case, do not trouble yourself about the ideology you may disagree with. That is a futile fight you cannot win because you cannot bring an ideology of that sort down to this level of humanity. Those kinds of concepts of identity are irrelevant at this level. They do not downconvert to a more primitive truth of self identity that is universal human nature without exception. Being concerned about modern Judaism reconciled with basic humanity at the dawn of civilization is like trying to play a PS5 video game on an old school PS1. Get real. That is not going to work and if you are even trying to do that, you have no understanding of the technology you are messing with and wasting everyone’s time because this isn’t the time to play games to see which one is most popular.
When we can climb out of the bilge and pump out all the water because the flooding was stopped and the pipe patched, then maybe after we clean up the mess, dry off, change our clothes, and have all day to talk about what happened and why, then you can bring up why you thought games were important during such a crisis. I can assure you that I want to know the reason why you believed that and were even able to interfere with me, more than you have been trying to tell me, and as far as I can tell, you are willing to die for a game that can’t be played if the ship sinks.
…. holy hell…
so… back to the topic of knowledge. The reason why human language is the most deficult is not because it requires the most skill, the most talent, or the most perfection of form. That is required in exceptionally great amounts, if modest compared to the most skilled and talented of musicians and painters, just as any work of art does, but it is not skill, talent, and ability alone that makes a work of art great. You need purpose, reason, truth, and luck that you make yourself because of how you can navigate through the chaos of random and unpredictable opportunity to make yourself the greatest artist you can possibly become. (Romantic love is not necessary, but that would be applicable as reasons and truth).
What makes the human language, and particularly writing the most difficult is because it is the form of art people are least interested in. As I mentioned before, the use of written language is done specifically without evoking sensual experiences of the body to stimulate happiness and passionate feelings of existence. The written word requires time, patience, and most people get bored trying to read this much and have things to do with their time that are important. Written art is the most difficult because of what is required to convince people it is worth the time and effort to enjoy.
If 99 percent of people are loathe to read a book in the first place because they prefer the enjoyment of sensual stimulus, what do you need to do to convince them that it is vital they understand the message the work of art is conveying for their very survival? “Excuse, ma’am, this book is going to save the world, but only if people understand how it relates to life, the universe, and everything by reading it to experience the mystery or believing in the purpose it serves enough to trust it with your life. But it’s not about me, and I’m definitely not Jesus the Christ, I promise.” Not likely. Obviously. That sounds crazy, ludicrous, unreasonably deluded with vanity. You need an authority that is respected to vouch for the story so people who trust their opinion or respect their authority will know they aren’t wasting their time with me.
For matters like a spiritual savior using the true power of the highest divine existence, what authority do we have in society? National leaders? Religious leaders? Popular celebrities? Doesn’t seem like it would be too hard to get their attention with technology these days… and yet… eight years have gone by without a single response from the countless attempts I made to reach out to people who are even willing to consider that I am not an idiot— yet the buffoon president they worship appears to me in plain sight as the embodiment of idiocy that I cannot imagine how people could even ignore the evil he reeks of. Like a fresh human turd on the dinner table that everyone else is trying to ignore is there. WTF IS HAPPENING HERE!? I signed no waiver for a reality tv show, so this better not be a prank, because the USA president with a nuclear arsenal is nothing to prank about.
Why I have had such difficulty getting the attention of people who have revealed themselves to be the most inhuman, heartless, ignorant, and selfish human souls imaginable is a story itself, but not one that we have time for. Well loved celebrities… they will no longer be loved. They will not fall from the sky not because they want to, but because they will lose all support and collapse into poverty because of how selfish, heartless, arrogant, and evil they revealed themselves to be. To hell with them, because I don’t care about their personal lives. If I have no other choice than to go from the ground up because of injustice, tyranny, oppression, and efforts to abuse national power of government to suppress my influence— I am going to do it. I don’t know how, but I am going to find a way.
Do you know what? All it takes is one person, one person with popular influence to point me out from the crowd… and they may not even be famous. That single gesture, which doesn’t even have to be a personal connection or friend— they can be just a curious stranger interested in something new and different that is developing around my life—the single effortless movement of a finger clicking a button on a mouse is all that is required for most of the popular celebrities to be saved, and their refusal to do so is all that is required for their eternal damnation.
When I am finally acknowledged for the first time and found out to be quite obviously real because of how inordinately inadequate all the charlatans, frauds, fakes, liars, and betrayers are in comparison, like the vile man who violated everyone’s sanctity as the former president, the illusions of evil they caused will be annihilated and never return. The dawn will break, and there will never be any doubt about what is good and what is evil, or what to do about them every again. Maybe today is the day….
Anyway… so those are the three primary powers of creative arts.
Things like stage plays, movies, and games work all of those together into something special, but I don’t want to get into that now, because fuck you.
… I have time for one question before I return to my virtual crops while this work simmers in the collective consciousness of humanity.
Yes, the lad over on that high fence he climbed at the back of the crowd to get a good view from. What is it you want to say?
“…Um… does that mean Donald Trump is the Anti-Christ?”
No, he is not. Donald Trump is a buffoon, an idiot, an insignificant moron who was stupid enough to shit on the coats and get caught when he was charitably allowed into the party as an uninvited guest who wanted to attend. Technically, the “Anti-Christ” I think you are referring to, or the “Lawless One” as he is sometimes called in scripture, is a supernatural being of evil that is vastly greater than any individual human being could contain. It is like the Devil himself being a person… there is just too much evil and different forms of it to be present all at the same time in one place. So… something like that is more of a spiritual concept, like a demon that possesses human bodies and manipulates them as long as they are allowed to do so by the person who is possessed.
However…. for Story purposes, I would be the Anti-Christ that I think you actually mean to indentify. However, this is a plot twist to the Story because the labels of morality have been reversed by that spiritual evil I mentioned. Basically, it’s like someone switched the signs to the bathrooms, but that’s about it because nothing else changed inside—good is still good, and evil is still evil. They have made what is good look evil, and what is evil look good, which is how a buffoon like Trump is even considered for something important like the job of the US president. He is the worst possible person for that job, the least qualified, and the most incapable of good judgment and wise leadership. A total tool for evil that is easy for evil to manipulate with false flattery. Disgusting really.
So, that is why Christians these days look so horribly evil, bad, wrong, and they are in fact that horribly mistaken about their identity—most of them anyway. So many that you can’t even notice the good ones anymore because there are so many evil ones pretending to be good! That is why I am the Anti-Christ. As long as you are standing on the “Christian” side, you would see me on the surface as labelled “evil”, but that is just an illusion.
It’s not really all that complicated to figure out, but spiritual explanations are difficult. Think of it this way: if you walked over to look at the situation from over there, you would see all the gimmicks the evil people are using to look like magic while I never even made an attempt for such foolishness because I am self-evident as good without demonstrations of signs and wonders like that. The Anti-Christ is just a name that evil tried to get people to attack me for. A lot of them did too, but I whooped their asses because they were basically nothing but evil minions compared to a protagonist in a good video game.
When all this is through, words like “Christ” and “Anti-Christ” will hold no power whatsoever, because they are now broken beyond repair. Evil broke the word “Christ” first thinking they had a “genius plan” but didn’t know I saw what they were going to do before they even realized they wanted to find a way to do it, so I was 100 percent ready and with a plan to catch them by breaking the word “Anti-Christ” at the same time.
Now they don’t have anywhere to go because the Christ is supposed to be seen in the light by everybody like a king is supposed to be, but the Anti-Christ is a being of darkness who can disappear from everyone’s attention to be unnoticed. I’ll show you in a moment. The evil that broke the “Christ” is of a magnitude that can fit into the Christ’s shoes, and the only place they all could have escaped to after they sabotaged the heart of life itself was the opposite role of Anti-Christ, but here I am alone, just me, Nick Byotas, so “what’s up Christ? You got something to say to me or what? Why do you look like you just shit your pants in the Oval Office? That is not a good look for the president if that’s what you are supposed to be doing.”
It is only a matter of time until every last one of the fools responsible, starting with Donald Trump, then Joe Biden, are exposed and put to justice with what may possibly be a legal and lawful death penalty for treason in a time of war that is applied to both of them at a court martial.
For that, I need the help of a lot of other protagonists, so maybe grow up to be one yourself, if you want, because their corruption is deeply entrenched everywhere. It’s going to take about 150-200 years before we can be assured with certainty that all of it has been removed. Until then, you never know when they will try to attack anonymously from the darkness without warning, so it’s best to be ready to fight at all times.
Hey, what’s that over there?
End.
