CHI ART is a term coined by Grand Master Chi Jen Liu to describe his special paintings. True to the nomenclature, his paintings are essentially the "art of energy." Grand Master Liu paints them for the sole purpose of creating balance between personal, feng shui, and cosmic dimensions. Chi Art is a meditation expressed in a visual form. Looking upon the mantra charms, diagrams, and symbols in a Chi Art painting stimulates your subconscious mind, triggering subtle, yet deep states of transformation.

Visual art, like music, is a universal language. It crosses many barriers and touches us deeply, penetrating the levels of our conscious and subconscious minds and communicating to us on multiple dimensions.

Each on their own, visual art and music can be amazing, but when you experience visual art combined with music, the impact is extremely powerful. To fully understand how art and music enhance each other, imagine watching a movie without a soundtrack, listening to pop music without the video, or looking through a digital photo album on its own versus it being accompanied with music. When you add music to art, the combination becomes another medium of communication as their messages intertwine and become stronger.

When you meditate you can create your own "spiritual music" by combining your mental vibrations with mantra chanting. Meditating with your unique spiritual music in front of a Chi Art painting, you can essentially bond with, and amplify the frequencies of the art. This creates an even higher frequency that energizes you and allows you to transcend into dimensions of higher intelligence.

So, although Chi Art is effective and amazing to behold as art hanging on your wall, when you add the power of your personal sound waves to the frequencies of the painting, you will experience the immediate added impact and bliss of utter fulfillment.

I will now guide you through a meditation with the Chi Art, "Nature’s Eyes." Chant the suggested mantras as you allow yourself to feel comfortable and let your spirit’s natural song come out.

In feng shui theory, dripstones are revered as good luck symbols because they are extensions of a mountain’s energy, making their way from the ceiling of a cavern toward the floor, thus reflecting heavenly wealth coming to earth. The dripstones relate to the Chuan Gua and represent the power of prosperity from heaven.
