Part 1

A lot of aspiring artists can bring on themselves delusions, and this happens to be either a situation of propulsion or damnation. The proper path is to minimize delusions and leave room to grow the hope and motivation, playing a greater role here. A certain internal conviction of artistic love, pursuit and masterpiece that relates to your ego is definitely to be entertained and can be very positive. If misused, one will find themselves blind and unable to transform, to craft better.

First, many do not know, and those who do, do have misunderstood this truth: music (all art as well) is MATHEMATICS.

Reality is math, life is math, music is mathematics. You have been lied to all your life by mistake to understand that if you can feel, expand your consciousness and be in love with, moved, influenced, or provoked, it is something that if “creative” is opposite to “logic”.

No dear people, music and art = mathematics, without it there is no timeline, no motion, no moment of existence, no composition, no feeling, no SOUND, no Witnessing. Waves are mathematically existent, everything.

This applies to everything, and it doesn’t invalidate the way we process it, if it is more right or left brain sided, the act of the creator must come from the innermost reality, and act on that sphere first and foremost, with acknowledgement.

The other extreme is those people who robotically only know how to make a pattern and think they created music. To draw a line based on semi visible lines. This is a false perspective as well, equally a gamer who understands a music software as a game, will do the same if not better. This is part of learning, of BECOMING, not of Being already.

I. Type of creative: Logical - able to enact creative forces in reality, lacking depth of creative ability.

II. Type of creative: Emotional - able to procure visions and creative universes in their mind, lacking in ability to manifest it.

True artist is both of these, and one that worked for these in a lot of time.

The other artists puzzle out these two necessary steps by hiring people or collaboration. Some of them due to efficiency, some due to necessity.

The process of creation as a beginner needs to be guaranteed by:

I. Need of Discipline, Routine and Logical Approach.
II. Curation of Emotions
2.1 Self Inquiring, Contemplation, Meditation
III. Creative Force
3.1 Sexual Desire, Sexual Emotion or lack thereof (very rare cases of exceptional ability due to other misunderstood complex reasoning).
IV. Personal Life
4.1 Ability of attachment and detachment.
4.2. Empathy.
4.3. Bravery.
4.4. Happiness or Suffering.
4.5 Obsession or Purpose.
4.6. What feeds the Self and Ego. (In levels, the lower ego will yield short elevation, short-sighted popularity, matured ego will yield timeless and selfless true masterpieces, popularity for hundreds of years)
V. Safety: Survival of the body + no worries must be happening of the material life to critical degrees (if there are, an escapism will happen in creation which can prove disastrous if mismanaged, you do not create in that state, but seek creation which is a form of escapism when in dire situations.)

To create is to bring inspiration, glimpse, vision, mistake, harmony, memories, sentiments, dreams, feelings, stories, states of the being into manifested product/real element. This comes into being by building up trial and error, so that inspiration can take place from the impermanent nature it has, to your ability to make it permanent in sound form or other forms of art. A manifested product can come only by your ability to produce it, with tools and development. This development to where you can manifest and create what’s on your mind, by the use of an intermediate interface (instruments, sheets of paper, musical software etc.) will take over 10 years of daily real effort and practice, and it does NOT end. The level one must seek here is that: From your mind to reality the delay must be fully minimized if not ZERO.

A vision can be bestowed, happening, come and go all of our lives, in a thousand forms or just one, what cannot come and go is your own ability to enact it and produce it in this world. The real degree of true art is one that what is in your mind must be created outside of you almost instantly. There is no time for figuring out things at the higher true levels when you lack critical ability.

Insane amount of artists have lost masterpieces due to inability to enact on it. When this happens to you, and it will, you must not lose sight of your meditative abilities. These inspirations can come back even years later when you are prepared. Reality is very much organic in this sphere, and inspiration can be summoned, inquired and applied oneself to. Do NOT WORRY.

Here is why how you grow in these years matters the most. A musical school can help you, but it can also condition and imprison your creative input and output. These things must come from within, NOT TAUGHT to the degree that it is expected. I would say, however, if your life is truly about artistic forms, apply to schools and universities that deal with the tools of your art, not as for stupid theories on paper.

I would advise only after extensive exposure to an art, to pursue a school for it. Not the other way around, to ensure true birth of your creative abilities.
