Blogging, like any other creative activity has both a spiritual as well as a demonic angle to it… so long as a blogger sources outpourings from within, it remains blissful. This is because he is ‘creating’ and any act of creation has the power to take one much above the plane of mortal existence.
Creativity is much larger than existence!
The moment a blogger starts depending heavily on copying and lifting words and ideas, he breaks the umbilical cord that binds him to creativity and begins a descent downwards from mortal existence… this brings him nearer a demonic plane.
So creators must remain aware of this and treat ideas, thoughts, and words taken from elsewhere as raw material for building something new and fresh. There is an inner joy in it.
