” I don’t care if I’m a ‘great artist’ or not,” says John Swindler (Jayarama dasa). “I just want my art to point toward the mysteries and the beauties of the truth, that’s all. Whether it comes into the context of being great or famous, that doesn’ t matter so much. If I feel that it evokes the desire to understand something higher and to appreciate a higher beauty, that’s what I care about–because that’s the experience I have with it, and that’s the experience I would like to share. And if it becomes ‘great.’ fine, if it doesn’t, fine. That doesn’t matter, as long as I can somehow point toward that higher direction .” See interview on page 25.
