Tenzin Wangyal RinpocheAn Excerpt from Spontaneous Creativity
Bön Buddhism takes the view that our nature is primordially pure. So within every living being is this pure source of creativity, which gives rise to the positive qualities and infinite possibilities that are the causes of creativity.
Qualities like love, compassion, joy, and equanimity are the spontaneous expression of the source and the essence of creative flow.
Creativity is our birthright, and our nature is expressive. But how do we connect with this creative energy so that we can offer our unique gifts to the world? One of the most effective methods I have found for discovering creativity is through activating the creative potential of five energy centers in the body—what are known as chakras. Briefly, the chakras are portals to a path that begins with the unbounded sacred space that is our creative force and continues to unfold from creative potential to creative manifestation.
