1) I agree
with Matthew's view that attachment and emotion affects creativity. The creator
should not be influenced by historical or personal judgements. People can enjoy
prejudice-less, real and genuine creation better. According to Rabindranath
Tagore, “Great calm, generous detachment, selfless love, disinterested effort:
these are what make for success in life". Lord Krishna's life is one of
the great example of disinterestedness or detachment.
(2) In contemporary times, Matthew's view about "Touchstone Method" seems not appropriate. "Comparison is the thief of joy". comparing literature, poetry or whatever else will only serve to make people unhappy. Creation should be judged by uniqueness, acceptance, principles and popularity not by mere comparison.
