Having
created the opportunity for these workers coming from
different cultures, and with different goals, led
to my search for a way for those tools and techniques
to be used in a system that can lead someone to creativity.
This system has been acquired from various teachers
as well as tools and techniques, which have emerged
from the work I did on myself for last 15 years.
The
experience of working as leader for actors, dancers,
inter-disciplinary artists, students of religion,
science, and anthropology, and corporate officials
during numerous workshops in Europe, India and Africa,
sharpened my skills as a teacher. The tools and techniques
that are used during my interactions with multicultural
groups cross the barriers of personal, social, cultural
conditionings in order to lead each of them somewhere
deeper within, in order to allow the Creative Impulses
to flow. This is completed without being polluted,
disturbed and influenced by the preconditioned aspects
of The Person.
Currently, the work with the aforementioned artists
involves the use of the tools and techniques derived,
developed and modified for the precise and personal
need for each participant from the Stanislavskian
system, the work of Jerzy Grotowsky along with traditional
Indian methods and techniques of theatre, dance and
acting, based on Natya Shastra. However, these techniques
are used after each of them has been tested and experimented
for a long time through my personal work. When these
have been found safe and extremely beneficial in order
to arrive at a significantly unconditioned state of
tranquillity, then fresh and creative impulses can
emerge.
The
other source of tools and techniques is derived from
Indian yogic traditions such as : Hatha yoga,
Jnana yoga, Kriya yoga, Karma yoga, and Bhakti yoga.
Other physical practises are derived from African
Bushmen, southern Native American and Native Hawaiian
traditions.
The techniques of breathing, sourced from various
schools of yoga, are then applied with care and strict
vigilance leading to that unconditioned state of tranquillity.
This translates into a physical readiness where every
subtle and gross impulse can freely flow from that
Inner Condition.
