Inauguration of the Galería de Síntesis in Murcia, Spain

Monday, April 21st, 2025

June 24, there was a blogpost “The Paintings arrive at their Home” about bringing my paintings and related material to the farmhouse of my friends Ursula and Jesús, from the World Teacher Trust, near Murcia in Southern Spain.
And end of August 24, you could read a blogpost about “The Gallery of Synthesis in the Making“.

Together with friends, Jesús had intensely worked for 9 months to transform a huge all into the ‘Galería de Síntesis’. It was a great work of good will and selfless commitment. The Galería will be a place for meetings and wisdom teachings, also with the help of the paintings.

Taurus – The Geometry of Creation as the Container of Beauty

Monday, April 14th, 2025

The principle of beauty in creation is expressed through forms. Form is the medium through which beauty manifests itself and through which we come into contact with beauty. We find beauty through form, but not in form. The geometry of creation is the container for the expression of beauty.

Beauty is the divine side of form and is in truth beyond form. Through beauty, forms tend to become perfect. When we see the divine side of form, we find the splendour and hidden harmony in creation. We see a flower, and waves of beauty radiate through the flower. The beauty of the flower lies in its wholeness, not in any part of it.

By contemplating a beautiful form, we take the beauty inside of ourselves. By connecting inwardly with beauty, ugliness is transformed into the original order. This elevates us into a state of harmony that unfolds beauty and harmony in our lives and radiates into our surroundings.

To illustrate the geometry of creation, I used a photo of a rock crystal on my altar cut into the shape of an octahedron. I worked a photo of a rose blossom into it. I placed a radiant star in the centre to visualise the radiance of beauty.

The deep blue background represents the hidden side of creation, from which star shapes emerge as centres of radiance. Between the background and the octahedron shape there is a transitional area between pink and blue – the field of splendour and of the hidden harmony of creation.

16 Aries Paintings

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2025

With Aries, we enter the 16th annual cycle of the Images of Synthesis related to spiritual astrology.

The Sun’s entry into Aries activates fresh energies for the planet and the plan for the year precipitates down in seed form. With the help of Aries energy and a good plan, we can strengthen our will, especially during this time, for activities of good will and put ideas into practice. ‘Be creative and active’, Aries tells us. With right alignment, may we make the most of the Aries energies to do well throughout the year.

Aries – The Urgency of the Time

Thursday, March 13th, 2025

Eons ago, a group of Solar Angels decided to descend into lower man and implant spiritual Light into the brain cells of humans. This spiritual Light is the Light of the Soul or the Solar Angel within each of us. It makes us identify as ‘I AM’. This event for humanity is called the crisis of individualisation in evolution. It was part of the grand Plan to make human being self-aware.

Two qualities were held back at that time, spiritual Love and spiritual Life. At the present time, the Solar Angel has decided on a new orientation. From the viewpoint of the Hierarchy, there is an urgency of time to inform people about this and thereby allow them to orientate themselves towards spiritual Love and Life.

The coming strong influence of the Aquarian Age is a second crisis; it brings forth the blossoming of the mind. Humanity is being prepared for a second initiation. It is a crisis for humanity to be reborn in the spirit. From the thought of ‘I AM’ we move on to ‘THAT I AM’. We work out identification with the greater whole on a higher level and develop detachment from the lower personality self.

The Solar Angel transcends the human realm to become master of the fifth kingdom of nature, the kingdom of the soul. Whether we are ready for it or not, the reorientation will come into our being. Either we agree or we don’t. Humanity is in a time of deep crisis.

The picture symbolically represents the influx of the energies of the Solar Angel and the crisis of humanity, which can lead to rebirth in the spirit.

15 Pisces Paintings

Tuesday, February 25th, 2025

The two fish of Pisces indicate endless beginnings and endings. Every beginning has its conclusion hidden in the beginning. Every conclusion has its hidden beginning. It is an eternal cyclical movement. We can experience this when we stand beyond the cyclical movements. The wise ones call this, ‘living in the awareness of the background’. May we strive to live in the awareness of the background synthesis in these turbulent times.

Pisces – Colours of Pisces and the Cosmic Person

Monday, February 17th, 2025

The human form is a reflection of the form of the Cosmic Person. According to Master EK’s ‘Spiritual Astrology’, the secrets of these correspondences are preserved and concealed in Pisces and are reflected in the depths of our consciousness as ‘photographs’.

In our perception of the objective world, we know colours as the effect colours have on us. How we designate a colour is an individual perception that differs from person to person. The colour of Pisces is described by some as light blue and by others as bright or transparent white.

The colour of the sign is difficult to describe in words. It corresponds to the clear sky in bright daylight. The colour has two phases. It appears blue but is actually white like the radiant magnesium flame. Spiritual Astrology says that the true colour is always imparted by the guru at the time of initiation.

Pisces is a sign of endings and beginnings. Past and future meet in the eternal present, represented in the glyph of the sign with the meeting and joining of two half arcs. For the background of the painting, I used a photo of the radiant sky and ocean with a small white island of clouds on a flight to Spain just before the Pyrenees. I placed a large semi-transparent Pisces glyph over the entire picture and placed above it seven white ovals symbolising the seven planes of creation.

Into this structure I integrated the image of a statue of Lord Dattatreya, the unity of the three Logoi, surrounded by a cow and four dogs. The statue is made of Panchaloha, a Sanskrit term of a traditional alloy of five metals (gold, silver, copper, zinc, iron) symbolising the five elements of creation – space, air, fire, water, earth.

Twice, after hours of work on the picture, everything created so far disappeared due to a power failure and a programme crash. At the third attempt the following day, this new form of the picture emerged. In creation, too, there is dissolution and new beginnings.

15 Aquarius Paintings

Thursday, January 30th, 2025

The path of Aquarius is mysterious. It demands enquiry and intense search into the occult for lifting veil after veil. Unfolding concept after concept to realise that we are ourselves just a concept of THAT. Aquarius demands the letting go of concepts and the free flow of energies in all directions. We learn to BE and yet experience all states of consciousness simultaneously.

Aquarius – Vena the Gandharva

Thursday, January 23rd, 2025

Picture to the Month of Aquarius

The Indian Puranas describe musical intelligences which are called Gandharvas. They are supra-cosmic beings who are not bound to creation. They exist as musical movements in space and assist the work of creation. The music of the Gandharvas brings about the union of the souls with the Supersoul and bestows the bliss of liberation.

There is a royal Gandharva called Vena. He is poetically described as the essence of the Aquarian passage between apparent non-existence to apparent existence. Vena moves with ease between these two states like a spiritual and fiery river. This flow energy can also be described as a bridge going up to the highest and coming down from the highest. In us, the flow of the river Vena is located between the seventh and sixth chakras, i.e. the Sahasrara and Ajna.

The most important function of Vena is the neutralisation of binding karma. For this purpose, Master CVV gives the mystical mantra ‘Electric Hint’. It enters us like an electrical manifestation and then wipes off the images of the subconscious mind. For this purpose, the Master also gave the meditation 31 in the ‘Occult Meditations’:

“Vena, the Gandharva, is wiping off the pictures of the subconscious mind on the walls of my nature with the hieroglyphs of sound from his seven stringed lyre.” When we work with the sound key CVV, we can visualise how the energy of that Gandharva enters us from above our Sahasrara and fills all seven centres with the working of light and sound. This brings about purification and good changes within in us.

To illustrate the music of Vena, I used the picture of an angel playing music in a fragment of an altarpiece by Gherardo Starnina, painted between 1400 and 1410 A.D. A female angelic figure plays a harp, and the vibrations of the music travel in circles through space. Visualisations of the supra-cosmic plane are always only poetic approximations.
