Remembrance 2025 30x30 cm canvas, watercolor, gold enamel The Japanese woman depicted with a flute symbolizes the Goddess, the Mother of All Things, Tennyo, in her incarnation (nature spirit, fairy, Deva). The flute, a shakuhachi, is a symbol of the path to spiritual enlightenment. The instrument's connection to nature plays a central role in its spiritual significance, its sounds evoking the natural world, while bamboo symbolizes simplicity and strength. It is a channel through which the musician can connect with the divine world, the natural world, and their inner self. Spiritually, "sound" can be seen as a universal vibration connected to God, a divine language, and a tool for spiritual growth. The haunting, ethereal sounds of the instrument evoke calm, simplicity, and a connection to the cosmos. It creates intentional silence between the notes, allowing the listener to contemplate, reflect, and connect on a deeper level with the music and with All That Is. The pink/purple pansy symbolizes the union of love and spirituality. It can symbolize the growth of a loving relationship, spiritual fulfillment, and balance between the heart and mind. It is associated with healing, gratitude, tranquility, creativity, and a sense of spiritual transformation. It is a powerful combination of healing, tranquility, peace, uplifting thoughts, and gratitude. Another name for the flower is Joy of the Heart (the joy of the Virgin Mary—respect and love for her, sincere devotion), remembrance/thought of the origin, of All That Is. As the title of the painting reflects: remembrance of Unity, in which everything is part of everything, everything affects everything, everything feels everything. Where the energy, softness, beauty, and unconditional love and acceptance of the Divine Feminine, peace, and harmony reign. And where we now return with our ascension: unconditional love, compassion, purity, heart-mind balance, respect for nature and close energetic cooperation with it, which is achieved through the sound/frequency/shakuhachi spiritual instrument (symbolizing the voice of the soul, with which God our own Self calls us into itself) in the sound (we consider sound to be the fundamental energy present in everything, including consciousness and matter) and in the silence between sounds.
