The artist has had a mystical experience of enlightenment in which he went through the full disintegration of reality, experiencing his own death and his own birth. This work symbolizes the intense beauty, the rays of energy of his enlightenment. Having discarded the darkness of the past, like a bird discards his moldy feathers, Rayastre felt like he was a tiny molecule in an endless stream of consciousness in a timeless and formless universe. He experienced that he is the same as a stone, as the wind, as every element or movement in our existence. He is one with the viewer, to which the energy flows back. The artist sees himself as a filter, through which energy flows, but God is the real creator. The work symbolizes the inner world. A world of beauty. The demons and monsters of the past are resilient and always lurking from the darkness which surrounds this precious enlightened sphere.
