Aparigraha

Crafted with Grandma’s vintage china, enhanced by gold leaf inlay and sealed with resin. This distinctive piece measures 30x24” and was created in 2023.

Aparigraha means “non grasping,” “non envy,” and it can be a tough sell in this consumer culture of ours. But freedom from wanting more and more is just that: freedom.

Aparigraha is the decision to not hoard or accumulate goods through greed but rather to develop an attitude of stewardship toward the material world. As you start to get attached to things and identify with them then it’s easy to start thinking you are your stuff, but the truth is that stuff comes and goes. Reject the concept of “mine”.

The idea is: Just let it go. If our homes are filled with old junk that doesn’t apply to us anymore, there’s no room for new energy to come in. That holds true for the nonmaterial ideas and attitudes you cling to as well. If you are hanging on to old beliefs about yourself or your relationships, or clinging to a career that no longer feeds you, there’s no latitude to move in a different direction.

Acknowledge abundance and practice gratitude.

Be happy with what you have. This spirit of true renunciation will diminish the power of aparigraha.

Using sound, prayer, smudging, essential oils, sacred geometry, mandalas and elements of nature, I infuse my art with positive vibes.
