Drawing Nature In on The One Great Work Network is the work of Mark Passio and his students, of Natural Law, expressing ourselves about Natural Law and applications of Natural Law.
What Is Drawing Nature In?
We are a spiritual institution which uses the practical method of observation of Nature through the vehicle of Art Making to foster a connection to that Spiritual Force which is deep down inside each of us.
Who Are We?
We are artists who live life aligned with Natural Law, through practical applicable teachable skills.
Our Mission
The mission of Drawing Nature In is to provide a way to live in ecstatic and connected harmony with Nature and Self parallel; to live in alignment with Natural Law. To incubate creativity on Earth by uplifting the hearts and minds of our fellows by anchoring Nature and Consciousness. We are here to assist in the ascension of the human consciousness on this planet. We foster the use of human creativity for the highest good of all sentient beings.
What is Nature?
All that is non-man-made.
What is Natural Law?
The word ‘Natural’ is derived from the Egyptian word ‘Neter (Ntr)’ which translates to ‘Spirit
/ God’ and the suffix ‘-al,’ which, just as in English, means: ‘Related to / Of / Having come from.’ It can be readily seen that the word ‘Natural’ (Neter + -al) means ‘Related to- or, having come from Spirit / God.’.
Natural Law is Spiritual Law.
See us on The One Great Work Network.
Natural Law is universal spiritual laws which govern the consequences of behavior for intelligent species; meaning beings that are capable of coming to an understanding of Self / Consciousness, and also capable of understanding the objective difference between harmful and non-harmful behavior towards themselves and other beings.
• Natural: Inherent / Having a basis in Nature, reality, and Truth / Not made or caused by
humankind.
• Law: An existing condition which is both binding and immutable (cannot be changed).
The purpose of learning art with this focus is to offer ourselves and others the achievement of the highest spiritual potential, to find our unique voice, to learn to trust our Intuition, to strengthen mental concentration, visualization and manifestation and to live in conscious connected awareness of the Creator within and mirrored in the world, and our connectedness to All.
Why Spiritual?
The spiritual realm is the causal realm. Once the trinity of thoughts>emotions>actions are in alignment, then the being is in harmony with itself. The impetus behind the first thought is Intuition which inhabits the spiritual realm.
Our lessons provide seekers with the tools and teachings they need in order to connect with the Higher Self, and to develop a working practical relationship with the Unknowable, through the vehicle of art-making. We structure our curriculum from basic to advanced, although it is possible to jump in at any point, because the Path of the seeker will find it’s own level.
Drawing Nature In carries out the work of Natural Law, preserving and handing down the tools and teachings in the lineage of intuitive knowing by observing Nature through the lens of Wonder. This is done through the discipline of learning to see Nature first with the 5 senses, harnessing the thoughts and eye-hand coordination and then moving that discipline inward through the third eye. Drawing Nature In works to bridge the spiritual and the physical worlds through creating works of art which channel Divinity.
Our Vision
Drawing Nature In assists in providing a practical way to align with Natural Law on Earth for the highest good of all beings..
Core Values and Beliefs
We believe and know from experience that all humans are of Divine Origin and are therefore made from Etheric substance, in the image of the Creator, therefore we are Creators.
The soul of all beings is Eternal. We are never born and never die. Yes, we have a physical body, but so does the butterfly begin as a caterpillar and then becomes larvae transforming into the mesmerizing creature in it’s last stage.
All of us have the knowledge of transformation within ourselves, but unlike the butterfly, we will have to seek that knowledge in order to transform in this lifetime.
We believe and know from experience that humans are constructed of body, mind, and spirit. Our minds are a combination of intellect and intelligence. We must nurture the Body with whole food and exercise and presence in every moment, cultivate a balanced view of the Mind through a combination of creative exercise, meditation, and prayer, and nurture the Spirit through service.
Mentally and emotionally we have much trauma that must be undone to allow us to move freely and manifest our potential.
We view the human expression as nurture rather than nature. The human is a blank slate in which either good or evil can be programmed, although the human animal is inherently “good”. The human can wipe their mental slate and change their programming at any time.
We know from experience that the Prussian education system which has been imposed upon humans in the last 2 centuries is that of an evil plan to stifle human potential and impose slavery by an elite group.
We believe and know from experience that by illuminating what Nature has to offer and Drawing Nature In, we can overcome tyranny.
We believe and know from experience, in the inner monarchy; taking full responsibility for one’s own thoughts, emotions, actions and words in all situations. We believe that true ownership of those faculties is laid at the feet of the individual self, and that with help of the Spirit, we can self-actualize to become co-creators of healing in our world.
We provide a method by which individuals can freely express themselves in a healthy way of their own individual choosing unburdened by hidden fears and negative influences masquerading as individual creative expression.
We believe and know from our own personal experience through shadow work, in the power of humans to create a better world and that with the correct nurturing we can accomplish that goal. We believe we have seen what incorrect nurturing can do as it has been and is being done to people through the mainstream media: television, Hollywood, the internet – and we aim to provide an alternative for seekers to be able to go within and find their core values and be able to first nurture them in a safe place and then later stand in them, even if they are alone because they no longer truly are alone – they will always have that conscious connection with the Creator as found in Nature.
From that development point, with a strong foundation in their individual Inner Truth, students are adequately equipped to be of service to the world.
Empower Yourself
This course will introduce you to metaphysical concepts and ancient teachings that have been hidden in plain site and dispersed into the mainstream through media to render them useless. The study and creation of Art is the highest spiritual path because the creation of Art is the drawing in of Nature Herself into the body, mind and spirit of the initiate. It is a mimicking of that action of the Creator.
Once empowered and aligned with Nature, nothing can defeat you.
Our course of self-realization through Drawing Nature In, is based completely on Spiritual alignment with Natural Laws of the Earth, Herself, which are observable in Nature.
In fact, the inalienable rights espoused in Constitution of the United States of America, are all observable in Nature. We are not looking for Supernatural Power, however the Power that is here, when concentrated, feels “supernatural” in comparison with the way we live our daily lives “normally”. We don’t have to live that way any more. We can begin to live a creative existence in constant interaction with Divinity.
