Recently I was very honoured to be invited by Lotus on water to attend the Art exhibition at UOB privilege reserve. It is a place where on a normal day only someone with investments of over 2.5mil be able to enter, and when asked who were invited, it's those whom have the ability to be clients of UOB reserve or believed to have the potential to one day be.
It was an entirely different experience as that of the exhibition at ION. It was much more intimate, where we heard and experienced the art pieces from Master Yun himself through his personal sharing of his thoughts while creating the paintings.
One of the theme was the celestial peacock series. Where with normal light we see the magnificent peacock and under UV we see the celestial or the world of the universe.
The peacock reminded me that as we continue to strive and walk the journey of life we should prosper with elegance and be able to release beauty and value into the world we were born into.
Yet, the celestial view simply spoke an even greater message.
If the peacock represent us, the very us that we are suppose to become, then the celestial view will represent the inner us, the one that we contain.
Many times we fall into the societal trap that we should hide our talents, lower our expectations, be self-centred for the sake of survival etc.
However, that's not the true calling for those who seek greatness. For those who seek greatness we should be like the peacock in the painting, having the world of the celestial in us constantly shining, constantly working and expanding to create an even more beautiful and livable space.
And when will this inner self of ours shine the brightest? When everything seem to fail, in the very darkness. But the universe in us will continue to shine even brighter, keeping us on a constant path of motion till the sun rise again and reveal the peacock we are once again.
This is the Art Master Yun does, beyond just something to be hung on the wall, it is to remind us the being we should become and a reflection how our inner self should be...to have the universe in our hearts.
