What is "perfection? vs. What is "gifted performance?
But first a story about "perfection," and "not knowing what we don't know".
The Bent Leaf
There was a famous art school in which extremely dedicated students attended striving for mastery in painting. The students repeatedly copied works of masters attempting to create identical images of a master's painting.
One student, after forty years of trying, took the painting he just finished and proudly exclaimed to the instructor, " Look! I did it! This is an exact copy!. No flaws, nothing is missing!"
The instructor briefly glanced at the depiction of the leaves of the plant bending in the rain and said, "No, keep trying. Not even close enough yet."
"What!!!???" "This is perfect!!!" "You don't know what you are talking about!!!" "Let me see you do something better!!!!"
The instructor calmly picked up a brush, drew some leaves bending in the rain, and handed the painting to the student.
The student proudly declared, "Look, these leaves are the same!!!" "You are no better than me!" "You tell me where you can see any differences."
The instructor calmly replied, "You painted a picture of leaves bent in the rain."
(pause)
"My leaves are about to spring back up."
Moral of the story: We don't know what we don't know; and
Gifted Performance includes making the "Magic" happen.
Is this information for me?
Yes, this information is for everyone because this is a knowledge of what makes a performance/object "magical."
And how this is obtained. Physical and metaphysical bio-dynamic principles are presented via the fundamentals which are produced. There are only two major energy/muscle channels that produce these bio-dynamics. So this natural process is not complicated.
New insights can take talents to higher levels of performance. Awareness and appreciation increases.
This knowledge is for everyone. Note that photos and videos used in the website are from people/things that are all around us.
Gifted performance uses the same energy pathways and muscle groups as oneness and love so all these dimensions can be incorporated into daily activity, with daily benefit and rewards. Because of the holistic connection, an increase in one area of functioning produces an increase in all the other areas of life.
Dimensions and awareness of life increases. An example is the story and photo of the flower branch ready to spring back up.
Or the opening archer sequence of the videos where the archer's movement is done entirely with expansion and not muscle contraction, and is dwelling in a void created by visualization. Watch the stillness of the archer's shoulders. (The judges on "Dancing With the Stars" always cite keeping the shoulders down; an indication of proper bio-dynamics. With this knowledge I enjoy watching the show from another point of view.)
And what about the oneness of the chainsaw artist who, without even being able to see the cutting action of the large chainsaw tip, has his signature cut in high relief, miniature, eagle feathers that are making little figures. This is similar to the Zen archer who hits a target placed behind a screen.
This type of appreciation is obtained when a comprehension of oneness is acquired.
Self Expression: Gifted performance is self expression, so is love. Oneness connects the self to the metaphysical, which includes love and gifted performance. This is the requirement for paying attention to a holistic lifestyle for fulfillment.
The questions are:
- "Now I notice it. How do you place the energy into a leaf to make it look like it is about to spring back up? "
- "How does a gifted performance, and performer become so captivating?"
- "How can I learn the bio-dynamics of gifted performance/oneness/Love?"
- "How do I learn what I don't already have an understanding of?"
- "How do I get into the "Zone?".
- "Where does "oneness" come in? "How?"
- "How do I love better? In more ways and dimensions?
The answer is:
Beinggifted.com is dedicated to answering the "How?:"
- By providing a group of natural principles related to gifted performance/oneness/love.
- By instructing how to apply those principles to your areas of endeavor.
- The more you know, the more you have to use or give.
- The more you know the more you are aware of.
- The more you know, the more there is to draw upon in the creative process, or athletic endeavors.
Teaching the principles, the "how," enables understanding the what you are doing and why. Expanding those principles to other areas of endeavor makes the attainment of a more vibrant life more rapid and more complete.
This holistic approach has empowerment and therapeutic applications. Gifted performance and an empowered, balanced lifestyle are the same things. The fundamentals are the same.
Self-actualization and Child rearing: For child rearing a life time of change is available via these bio-dynamic principles.
"It is easier to build strong children, than to repair broken adults." Frederick Douglas
However, as an adult with "broken parts," these principles are also life changing. They are the natural fundamentals of the "fundamentals" so a core aspect of life is being effectively addressed, repaired, or actualized. There is nothing like going to the basics.
Critique, observation skills, and enjoyment levels increase as the knowledge of "performance attributes" increases. All arts and activities are feedback of enjoyable delight and understandings. It is "oneness with the person or object" that becomes most of the "magic." All objects are touched with the energy of oneness and love. Even one's presence, a presence that includes love, is significant in ways not observed outwardly.
All of life becomes entertaining. (I enjoy all music and art now, even though I don't have talent. Song lyrics take on new dimensions when going into a oneness with performer and lyricist. Connecting to the personal creative expression equals experiencing the reality of the artist. nal A ) Life is more fulfilling. More hope.
Parents will have the information and the teaching resources for children to obtain their full potential in life and living awareness.
Teachers and instructors will become more gifted in the art of teaching. Not only in teaching these principles, but also in the ability to analyze their students performance. Oneness principles create deeper depths of knowledge to offer.
Personal counseling becomes more effective as areas of bio-dynamics are understood from new perspectives; and a oneness connection.
Aficionados are taken to new levels of appreciations based on understanding the root bio-dynamics of performance. Oneness brings in new experiences.
Day to day living has more dimensions and awareness. Explanations for what is happening, connections, are more apparent.
Different avenues and methods of expressing oneself are revealed.
Perceptions are more "true."
A sense of "living and being" deepens.
Awareness and understanding have their own empowerment that comes from within. Outside standards for approval are
replaced with an internal knowing.
What if I'm not gifted and definitely not perfect or seeking perfection?
This website is not about "perfection." It is about connection, relationship, self-actualization, and completion. This is the magic of life, and how to create it. The ability to be as "one" with other people/objects/dimensions increases the daily awareness and perception of living. Sort of the "beautiful sunset effect." It takes you into another dimension of awe. The magical wonder of life.
Love is the same way. Note that this "love" is not people dependent. It is sourced from a deep place within each of us. That is where the "out-of-the-box void breathing" comes in. This universal sourced love can be experienced, plus it is always there. In terms of fundamentals, this is the fundamental love that is the basis for our human love. It does not require approval, or reward, or earning. This is the fundamental love that just "is." Metaphysically we can experience it via the visualization and metaphysical void breath connection. In the end, just as we hoped, it is all about love. (Instructions on void breathing click here.)
Health and wellness are other benefits of the breathing techniques. Taking care of yourself are also the techniques of gifted performance. This is a oneness that also takes away the fear of adverse encounters and creates a new empowerment. Of note in today's environment the wellness/healing/immunity aspects are even of more importance.
1. There is enough free material on the website to determine if there are areas/techniques in which you are unfamiliar and desire to know more about. If so, there is the potential to increase your knowledge and performance, and lifestyle.
The website is complete in that the entire, holistic functioning of performance is included. If you are not healthy or in fear/intimidation, your potential is limited. So these issues are also addressed.
2. There are books on Kindle that give an inexpensive foundation to what the videos present. They are under author Gary Ohama. Find a topic that appeals to you. Different subjects are addressed; but the basic information is the same, and is the techniques on breathing. There is also a free "Introductory " video; and free videos on the basics. (click here)
3.The featured paid videos are sessions of specific applications that can also be directed to similar endeavors. The fundamentals are all the same. Extra video content that assists in assimilating the techniques is included, and varies. Videos may be thought of as the information of a "condensed master class." Links to book or video purchases, some are free, are with the descriptions on the Product Book page, or Product Video page.
