"The function of Sacred Visionary Art is to empower a community, drawing people toward their own divine potential." - Alex Grey Check out the new Divinity volume by clicking here The divinity of the human imagination is the meeting point of world religions, because all begin with stories of God contact, and that only happens within the human psyche. The mystic philosopher, Ibn Arabi, specifically calls the creative imagination our angel, where God meets God. Ibn Arabi couldn't be any more explicit. An angel is an apparition or theophany that is apprehended by the soul's eye. This soul's eye view is what all of sacred art and literature share, a portal to divinity. Today's visionary artists, having had transcendental experiences through meditation and sacrament, are translating those apprehensions of the infinite inter-dimensional cosmos through their own skillful means. The planetary movement of visionary artists affirms the cross-cultural unity of these ecstatic inner realms and interconnectedness of all life and the cosmic order. Humanity is tapped into the Heavens. We are embodiments of a Hermetic staff connecting material and spiritual worlds, by means of the divinely aspiring mind. Celebrating creativity as a spiritual practice, the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors co-creates CoSM Journal of Visionary Culture to support its Core Mission to build an enduring sanctuary of visionary art to inspire every pilgrim's creative path and embody the values of love and perennial wisdom. CoSM Journal of Visionary Culture is dedicated to transformative living, and committed to the integration of wisdom and the arts, it shares with its readers the work and stories of artists, thinkers and community builders who are dedicated to transformative living, and committed to the integration of wisdom and the arts. The new special edition, number 9, ‘Divinity’ volume of CoSM journal has been creatively crafted by Allyson Grey, Alex Grey, Eli Morgan, Delvin Solkinson, Sijay James, Jon Ohia and Joness Joness.

PLEASE NOTE:
We are currently rebuilding our website with a new theme - so temporarily this site is functional, but a construction zone.
Headers, background and certain special new functions will be built in, respectively changed. Additionally, most Slide Shows used to be embedded from our Private Social Network on Ning. Since Ning discontinued Flash some time ago, the space where the embedded slide shows supposed to be is blank!
We are working to fix this as well, but with over 500 pages for artists alone, this will take time.
