The Muse and the Mountain
is a practical guide to creativity as a spiritual path. Its chapters are a series of meditations, reflective and guided, that reconnect the idea of the Museum in the Western tradition with the ancient practice of sitting with the Muse—that is, the practice of cultivating inspiration from divine and cosmic forces. In it, you will discover techniques drawn from ancient wisdom traditions and Buddhist practices of consciousness for how to re-enchant our relation to the art object and make ourselves porous towards the sources of inspiration in our world. These meditations are drawn from and extend the work of Phenomenal Museum.
