Music, painting, writing

The purpose of art is to take nature's elements, its changing appearances and create a form that directly points towards that which is ever-present in our experience. In fact, it is more than just an indication or a pointing - art is more intimate than that. It should give us the taste of the ever-presence or reality of experience, nature's eternity. In this way, reality is revealed through art - be it a word, a painting, a piece of music - that truly comes from the recognition of the true nature of experience.
