“Koi Fish Art”
I am so fascinated with Koi fishes, who doesn’t?! They seem to be so calm and even in groups or schools of fishes they manage to get along. And whenever i see this fishes in a pond or body of water it signals that the water is being cleansed and suitable for fishes.
In Japan this koi fishes and carps are living side by side with locals, its very inspiring to see that we could live in this world with harmony with natire and animals, they have koi fishes in their canals and houses and placed very near in the canals, and they use it to clean dishes and wash their fruits and vegetables, and no need for any chemicals like how we used to in the States or elsewhere. They also keep the pest like mosquito under control or simply male those pest vanish. And not only that its a very relaxing sight ro see i bet, theres a similar project in the Philippines where they have koi fishes on what ised to be a dirty canal. And noticed some tilapia can live there, so yhey cleaned it up as they can and raised some koi fishes, now its also being rehabed and part of tourism.
Here is video from you tibe about the koi fishes in Japan’s canals
And here is a dirty canal that transformed to a koi pond in the Philippines
This idea is quite simple but helpful to nature, i wish we could adapt it more here in the States and make our water clean, but because of the oil that came out from fossil fuel, most of the water is damaged, and not any that, with too much trash and disposable plastic seems like these is so impossible to repair.
Theres always hope when we look and ask for natures help, sometime we just need to leave it alone and heal on its own. With good intention and appreciation with our water we could help heal it, it may sound cheesy that your thoughts can actually change your surroundings, but it is true, actually theres this man Dr Masaru Emoto’s experiment with water, where he placed a 2 water bottles from the same source, the one labeled “I love you” and the other “i hate you” he found out after weeks of the experiment, the cellular structures itself of the water changed for both and it turns out that our intentions and words make a big impact in this world
here is a documentary from youtube about this experiment
Over all we have the right tools and power to change the course of our destiny here on earth, i guess with all the bad things happening everywhere, at the same time a good solution and awareness wakes us up. We are connected to nature and water all the time, well we are made of 70-80% water. If we apply the same experiment on ourselves, we could live healthy and loving beings.
I have experience this on myself, through meditation, i try to practice it once a day, but becoming more difficult as my kids need full attention, but when i get the chance i do it where i wont be distracted.
I sit down with my back straight and keep myself relaxed with every breath, and i try to think less and be aware of my thoughts, and i focus on love, and i do that for at least 20 minutes, sometimes i also have a glass of water in my hands to bring in positivity and love thru it, and i either share it or drink it after, after years of doing that, i get surprised on how much beauty i could create, my life started to be peaceful, no more dramas, i started art and painted and loved it so much that the love shows in every piece.
I am thankful everyday fir what ever blessing that I receive, and sometimes i could not ask for more, but more blessing comes, and i wish i could take everyone with me in this journey, and see the world in a different perspective. A world that is at peace with everyone and in harmony with nature.
I claim not to be an expert or a saint, ofcourse i still have a lot of flaws, but i am aware of it now, and i know that i have freewill to chose the right thing. And it ripples all around me as well. I wish they taught this is schools, in that way kids can easily cope up when problem arises.
Thats what i love about koi fishes, when you observe them in a pond or lake, the world seems to syop for a moment, and theres no problem no worries, its just enjoying the moment and in harmony with each other, and we dont even notice that they are capable of cleaning our waters as well. They also symbolize success, good luck and good fortune. I love painting koi fish and giving it away as a good luck to love ones and friends. And hope you find some inspiration in this post
That's what I was thinking too, @errymil. Looking at koi fish seems calming. And they make you realize that coexisting is possible - no need for the one to be above the other.
By the way, nice art work! 😊
