Juma usually paints abstract pieces. She feels like the various colors and textures express the huge myriad of life's extensive nuances and the expression of our soul itself!
Her paintings have a varied use of intense colors and textures- truly mirroring the vastness of nature and life. Many of her initial paintings (from back in 2007) were done on simple art card paper with tempura paints. They were painted with painting knives, sponges, cloth, fingers and other materials. Check them out... |
Juma has musicians surprised when they listen to these compositions and then realize that she created them solely from "a good innate understanding of tune" without any knowledge of music compositions or any formal music lessons!
These compositions are a great example of utilizing the Maitreyi Technique of Learning in a practical way. Hope you enjoy listening to these tracks. Check them out... |
Healing Benefits of Art Therapy
Art Therapy is a technique where a person’s spontaneous creation of art is used as a means of cathartic self-expression. Such expression and release of emotions improves the person’s sense of well-being.
Which “Art Creation” qualifies? Well, there are no hard and fast rules on this- it could be as simple as drawing or sketching ‘or’ as intricate and challenging as collage-making or sculpting.
Art Therapy was first used in the 1940s in England. The first practitioners and pioneers of this technique were Adrian Hill and Irene Champernowne. Adrian was an artist and Irene was a psychotherapist. While Adrian was recuperating at the hospital for tuberculosis; he used to paint and thus use his drawing as a means of recreation and catharsis.

Healing Benefits of Sound and Music
It is a known fact that everything that can exist in the universe as a material form has a vibration associated with it. In ancient Vedic times, this vibration, which is intrinsic to the body; was called nāda. Since nāda is fundamental to the existence of any form, it is considered as the very essence of that form.
By tapping into this vibrational energy, the nāda of any form we can establish a direct contact with that form, which is not marred by external appearances or cultural biases. This concept forms the basis of Nāda Yoga which is an ancient Vedic science where sound and its associated breath is used to achieve a state of unison, called yoga within one’s own self, one’s soul as well as unison with the Divine.
It is a known scientific fact that Vibrational energy is at the very core of any molecule and is connected and essential for its very existence. In Yogic terms, this vibrational energy of any being is a type of Nada-spanda I.e. it’s very own vibration frequency or spanda and the sound i.e. the nada associated with it.

Music Compositions

Star of David was my first music album. I never tried to market them, since these creations were not composed as a music venture, but an expression of my own inner creativity! Hope you enjoy listening to them...
Few tracks from Star of David albumDo note that these are more fun beats that one can jive to and jam with. Of course, dancing can be meditative and fulfilling in its own way! When it comes to music we all have our choice and there is no one right "style".
We all have heard Mozart's creation being called ethereal and resplendent of divine presence, but there are those who say that electronically and/or synthetically created music can at times allow one to experience even more states which are not possible by natural or well-known traditional instruments. So, what is the truth?? Each one of us needs to experience life in our own way and only then we can find out “the truth" of any situation as we perceive and interpret things... |
