“Life is sacred. Life is art. Life is sacred art. The art of sacred living means being a holy actor, acting from the soul rather than the ego. The soul is out of space and time and hence always available, an ever-present potential of our being. It is up to each of us to celebrate and to actualize our being and to turn each meal, conversation, outfit, letter, and so on, into art. Every mundane activity is an opportunity for full authentic self-expression. The soul is our artistic self, our capacity for transforming every dimension of our lives into art and theater.” MeanArtSoulSelfLife IsTurnsActorsOpportunitySpaceActingOur LivesExpressionHolyActivityConversationEgoCapacityLettersTheaterSacredAvailableCelebrateArtisticMealsDimensionsTime And SpaceTransformingMundaneSelf ExpressionAuthentic SelfArt LifeSacred Art Author:Gabrielle Roth
