| "Mungkin Boleh" by Anoora Chapek, acrylic on canvas 53cm x 66cm, 28 April 2021 |
We live in ‘Maya’, the world of Illusion, where sometimes we forget our Oneness with all things and our total interconnection with and dependence on Gaia, our Mother Earth. The greater Reality, the dimension of Love and Light, the Realm of Spirit is shrouded from us, mostly, and we think this world – of material things, social status, insecurity, fear – is all that there is.
But there are places where the veil is flimsy, even torn, and the vibration and energy of the Higher Realm seep through … blessing us with beauty, illumination, joy. Magick River is one such place. No one with a shred of intuition could fail to feel the Energy here.
There are also people who have access to the world of Spirit, which provides them with priceless inspiration (‘in-spirit’) to create great beauty here on Earth.
Without a doubt, Anoora is one such person, a conduit from the Higher Realm. And her presence here in Magick River is like a double blessing. As we have witnessed over the last couple of years, Anoora’s ‘dabbling’ in the world of paint and canvas has been like opening the floodgates of Beauty and Love from the Higher Realm. The purity of her being is the channel, the medium, for this multitude of blessed works.

When I first saw
Mungkin Boleh on Facebook in May 2021, I was so enraptured by the astonishing beauty of the swirling, vibrant, gorgeous colours, I messaged Antares immediately to ask if it was for sale. When he confirmed that it was indeed still available, my fingers were shaking as I typed, as fast as I possibly could: “I will buy it!” I could not believe my luck that I was able to acquire it, that someone else hadn’t bought it already. One day it will hang in Scotland, my spiritual home, where I will retire in another magical place where the veil is flimsy.
They say that we create our own reality, that what we witness and experience is a reflection of our inner state. For when someone else looked at my Mungkin Boleh for the first time, she said: “It’s a Shaman.” And for the first time, I saw it as that … a radiant Shaman swirling through the forest. I never saw that Shaman before … and now I cannot unsee him.
And so it is with all of Anoora’s mystical, vibrant art. Every person sees it differently. Magically channelled through her creative innocence, it reflects in its swirling, exhilarating colours the highest attributes of the observer. It is the embodiment of all the good that radiates from the Higher Realm: Love, Joy, Energy, Passion …
I am so blessed to have Mungkin Boleh in my daily, earthly life … as a beautiful reminder of the highest and purest aspects of the Divine Consciousness which is the Universe.

"I've been following Anoora's artistic journey with much awe and fascination. Her paintings come alive with bold, vibrant colours and such confident strokes. Anoora's art is pure tribal childlike genius. There was absolutely no hesitation when I saw her painting (titled "Saya Bebas"). I just knew I had to have it hanging on my wall. I'm looking forward to adding to my Anoora collection!" ~ Belle Love Lee, Kuala Lumpur, 13 April 2023

"Love is all around us. And sometimes it enters our lives as a surprise!
When I first saw Anoora's "Mukabunga," I felt a deep connection, it was like being transported back to Magick River and being kissed by the artist herself, who is always very affectionate with me.
Thank you, Anoora, for your immense talent, keep shining! And thank you, Honey and Antares, for empowering Anoora's potential to her fullest!"

This Vesak Day, in honor of Siddhartha's enlightenment quest, I beseech all who consider themselves Buddhists to forsake their text-book Buddhism - and go straight for Buddhahood instead. You can attain enlightenment at the snap of a finger, in the blink of an eye, in a single heartbeat. Being enlightened simply means you become aware of your own robotism, your own mechanical behavior, your own cultural and social programming... and therefore are able to successfully transcend it.
