Earth & Sky III

Listening to the everyday life during the pandemic in Santo André, São Paulo, Brazil, Autumn 2021.

Suniai

Spiritual beings in their perfection

In everyday life;

From the window

Branches and leaves point the direction,

Celebrate light in darkness.

Suniai 

Like heroic warriors

Rooting,

Contentment,

Thoughts,

Middle path,

Integrity.

Suniai

From where you can see the sea,

Oceans, mountains, people from all over the world

And nether regions of the underworld;

When death can’t touch you,

When devotees are forever in bliss,

When pain and sins are erased.

Suniai

When the Earth can sustain and can be

Support to the Sky,

and its Akashic Records,

Universal life,

its Ancestrality,

Atavism.

Anima Mundi

….

Text inspired by Japji’s 8th pauri, entitled Suniai, wrote by Guru Nanak, in the Sikh tradition.

*Suniai, in Gurmukhi, means listening to the subtle inner silence.

Sobre Ana Villas Boas

Ana Villas Boas lives and works in Santo André, São Paulo, Brazil. She holds Master’s Degree in Sociology, focusing on sociability, daily life and urbanism. She works as sociologist, in the area of Urban Planning at the Municipality, and also as instructor of Kundalini Yoga. Since 2011 she is a long distance runner and became an athlete as a child, as a swimmer, besides practicing triathlon, rowing, and canoeing. However, in addition to physical activity, she has a more comprehensive view and is interested in relating this activity to various themes: body movement, landscapes, sounds and silence. Her attitude is inspired by oriental philosophies, and is focused on a poetic sensibility of the paths and also the imaginary. Departuring from her own body abilities, mind, environment and sensations she is able to express thoughts and emotions on writing, and more recently, on translucid experience with drawing and painting.
