Lila Tace

I document my chain of art, my joy, and my frustration. This is my story in songs—one uninterrupted arch of an artist's journey. I'm a folk singer-songwriter, but honestly, I'm just a fool in love with scribbling poems on sheets of paper.

All the greatest love stories are but one.

I forgot myself. I lost myself to the land of images. Then I remembered, and the land of images brought me my soul. As above, so below. lilatace.com

That is the only way to teach.

How can you teach someone something that is not in the realm of their experience? Dead teaching doesn't impart experience. Living teaching gives a taste. That way, the teaching is not regarded as some gibberish but a recognition of what's already within. That is the only way to teach. lilatace.com

Don’t teach. Make art.

Teach with art. All ends in art that teaches. That's the end game for artists. Art with essence. Pulsating art. Vibrant, pure. Art with self-protected hidden gems— accessible to the living. Mistaken for average and boring. Art, like all art. Hide it all in your art. Preserve it with your heart. lilatace.com

I love like I want to be loved; I teach like I want to be taught

I share a prayer, and that is my invocation. I write a book, and that is my exploration. I sing a song, and that is my meditation. I do it for myself—in choicelessness—in utmost selfishness—which is selflessness—giving-getting at once—that's why it works—cause I don't do a thing—and who creates no thing?—and who consumes nothing? lilat...

Where do thoughts come from?

It's frequencies that you tune into—collective clusters of shit. You tune in and participate by frequency. You feed it by entertaining it, by giving attention & emotion to it. These are my own realizations, which I am documenting here. If they don't resonate, skip them—I'm not offended. Thoughts and emotions are collective. lilatace.com

Who’s dying anyway?

The ego is a protection mechanism, albeit a silly one! The ego is a trauma response. Cut the bogus and be total-vulnerability. The ego hurts as it dies off. Watch it with love. Who's dying anyway? lilatace.com

Frauds & Images

When people are relating, they are relating through images. I have an image of myself. You have an image of me. They are not one. I have an image of you. You have an image of yourself. They are not one. People never meet. When you start shedding layers of your image, you feel like a fraud. The new and the old image collide. You know th...

When you do, be—total vulnerability. Then, your work flows effortlessly. And your work becomes simple. And your work comes alive. Create and let go. Create and let go....

The Spiritual Path Of Art

You have your house, and it’s firm. You live in it as if it were your kingdom. You cherish it. It’s all you know. An artist comes along and opens a window.

Self-Born Knowledge

You are who you are. Who needs to acknowledge that? You don’t need anyone to clap for you. You know, that’s it. That is self-born knowledge—no approval needed. There is no desire for someone to praise or approve. You are that; that’s it. It has become part of your reality as you have unfolded it within your heart. Self-knowledge is not...

Potent Work: Potency Vs. Force

I used to think that hard work was the root of great work. That force was necessary to create work worth sharing. I have come to a different conclusion. I realized that when I am aligned with my authentic/natural being, work flows effortlessly. I realized that when I force, I am not in complete alignment. Forced work pales in compariso...
