Experiencing Interruptions?

PRAGYANAM_CONSCIOUSNESS aka NADH RESONANCE

Does mindful awareness
awaken alternate landscapes?
Does experience
determine different realities?

It is comforting to realize
that the nature & kinds of Cinema
are as vast in genres,
as with Literary Works

We enter the covert areas of mortal survival;
of human and animal survival instincts
that exemplify superlatively
the art of Awareness in Consciousness
An imperative need to live alert;
aware of the Whole

the film characters
and we the ones who experience,
imbibe this discerning significance
and expand our consciousness

Our awareness of CONSCIOUSNESS
and Being Consciousness itself
could be a new way for living
an examined, meaningful
and paradoxically spontaneous existence
in today's milieu
Quiet, contemplative, Stream of Consciousness Cinema

Director Statement

Director’s Statement

Imageography is the foundation
of all my Cine Art Films
It is an approach that is based
on the hypothosis
that Srutis - Intrinsic Truth
and Laws of Nature
that the Rishis received
from vibrations,
during the process of Life,
exist everywhere and in everyone –
within us and out there, in the beyond

… merged, as in AtmaBrahm;
Soul and the Universal Absolute

We do not search for it…
We just need to be acutely aware
in a wholistic manner
in dhyan meditation, in the present moment –
for it to unfold and reveal itself

this approach ascertains, that we
embody and live the eternal truths
of sanatan dharm;
attributes of essential Existence
in its most natural and integral form

It is for me, the Artist Philosopher,
to perceive and experience this,
as objectively and intuitively
as possible and then express it
in Cinema Language

To provide clarity
and depth of Vision,
through Image and Sound Realization,
I use the Imageographic Visual Thought
and Sound Design, for exploring and developing
the nuances of the Concept
Eventually, a free form organic
cosmic flow emerges in the Film

A universal language
that becomes a meaningful, significant
and classical Art Statement or historical
document on the environment,
at different eras of History…

making the essential visible,
the unfamiliar intimate,
and the familiar, clearer than ever before

There is an assurance ‘aashvaasan’
here, of an Inner Transformation of Self
and an enlightened new interpretation and
understanding of what we are about,
as a part of the Whole

(Inspired by a study of the Upanishads
and my own interactions and relationship
with the environment and humanity)
