Website Design: In Lila

In Lila is an arts & writing repository that touches upon the full expression of art, beauty, self-actualisation, and community.

To this end, In Lila creates and curates content in various media, such as writing, books, visual art, poetry, and music, in order to create a space of sharing and education that honours the refinement of beauty, both physical and immaterial, in all aspects of life.

Lila (लीला) is a Sanskrit word that is loosely translated as 'play.' The concept of Lila in non-dualist philosophical schools is a way of describing all reality, including the cosmos, as the manifestation of creative play by the divine consciousness (Brahman, the Self, the absolute.) Lila is free, spontaneous, and creative in every moment. All the world's a stage, the artist and the art, the dancer and the dance, as we weave timelessly through life and through death and back again.
