Description This is a vector (CorelDRAW X3) version of 's wonderful work, "Astral Perception" [link] Thank you so much for allowing me to use your epic drawing, Laura!

I wanted to create a riot of color to study its effects on (my) perception. Oh, and the weather is fairly dreary outside and this drawing cheers me up

This makes me think of the Beatles song, Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds. Absolutely lovely work.

I'm painting the room in a colorful way
And when my mind is wandering
There I will go...

Thanks, glad you like it

Thanks! I was trying for the 3D effect but more along the lines of sound manifesting as color

Anhad Shabd (the Sound without limit), the Divine Melody, the Voice of the silence, the Unstruck Sound, the Sound of Silence , the Holy Stream of Sound...

“I seemed to have touched accidentally the lever of an unknown mechanism, hidden in the extremely intricate and yet unexplored nervous structure in the body, releasing a hitherto held up torrent which, impinging upon the auditory and optic regions, created the sensation of roaring sounds and weirdly moving lights, introducing an entirely new and unexpected feature in the normal working of the mind that gave to all my thoughts and actions the semblance of unreality and abnormality. For a few days I thought I was suffering from hallucinations, hoping that my condition would become normal again after some time. But instead of disappearing or even diminishing as the days went by, the abnormality became more and more pronounced, assuming gradually the state of an obsession, which grew in intensity as the luminous appearances became wilder and more fantastic and the noises louder and more uncanny.”
-Gopi Krishna, Kundalini: The Evolutionary Energy in Man (London: Stuart & Watkins, 1970), p. 25.

"And you shall bathe in the Stream of Sound, and the music of its waters shall flow over you; for in the beginning of the times so did we all share in the Holy Stream of Sound that gave birth to all creation. And the mighty roaring of the Stream of Sound will fill your whole body, and you will tremble before its might. Then breathe deeply of the angel of air, and become the sound itself, that the Holy Stream of Sound may carry you to the endless kingdom of the Heavenly Father, there where the rhythm of the world rises and falls.

The Teachings of the Elect -THE HOLY STREAMS
