Creativity Is Transcendent

So, you ask, why do we care that creativity is transcendent—not restricted by empirical constraints of time and space? Good question!

If creativity and creative expression were restricted to the empirical, technological discoveries and dynamic changes in the arts would not have historically occurred simultaneously worldwide. Unrestricted by empirical constraints, we experience epiphanies and intuition—which historically precede significant change.

We’ve all experienced spontaneous awarenesses, concepts, or understandings? Science says these come into our consciousness from the subconscious mind. It’s our contention this exemplifies manifest transcendence—mind is where the empirical (ego) and the transcendent (soul) interact.

Artists and scientists both speak of ideas appearing out of nowhere or coming while taking a shower. Of course the subconscious mind’s a marvelous processor—but synchronistic phenomena are also described as manifesting in the same manner. Quantum physics continues to provide relevant data relating to phenomena previously considered synchronistic or paranormal.

As long as the “Muse” inspires the poet and scientists receive solutions in the shower, we’re compelled to remain open to the possibility of receiving transcendent insight.

Please offer your thoughts.
