True mastery and beauty in any field come from attuning oneself to a higher, divine flow rather than relying solely on technical knowledge or logic, as illustrated by the story of the musician who sang for God rather than for an emperor. Modern life’s tendency to compartmentalize knowledge and focus on static facts often obstructs wisdom and holistic understanding, whereas real success requires integrating movement, intuition, and life into what we do. Whether in healing, science, or art, techniques and facts are only tools; the ultimate secret of genius and effectiveness lies in becoming an instrument for divine inspiration and allowing that higher power to guide one’s actions.
