I create a story where I am king. Edinburgh artist Mike Heseltine.

I create my story
by Edinburgh artist Mike Heseltine.

I create stories about who I am to protect my ego.
I function in the world of my illusions.
This veneer of stories are just thoughts, which I create and present to the world.

When I was drawing this picture, I was thinking about the story of Adam and Eve. The serpent tempts them with the promise of knowledge of good and evil. Dualistic thinking was born, where we see ourselves as a separate self.

The crown represents the ego. Thoughts of past and future create my identity.

The non self watches on, as I create my story.

"When… you step out of the content of your mind...the incessant stream of thinking slows down. Thoughts don’t absorb all your attention anymore, don’t draw you in totally. Gaps arise in between thoughts – spaciousness, stillness. You begin to realise how much vaster and deeper you are than your thoughts"
- Eckhart Tolle
