This painting reflects our broken world at the peak of the devastation of humanity. In today's world the mere existence of life revolves around the material world and self-indulgence. Humanity often transforms into creatures who pose danger to the others’ existence and well-being. Humans have locked themselves in this wreckage, though we have the key to unlock and free ourselves; yet we defy. Our houses burn in the hoarding of possessions. Blindfolded to reality, we have the power to see and yet we often disregard it. Amidst this chaos there is only one power, which can mend broken hearts, the soul and humanity.
The Power of Healing is the Divine Power, white and pure, which comes to wrap the world with healing when called upon. The lines on top and bottom symbolize that Divine guidance is always available when we choose to seek it, promising hope for the future.
