The books of Anup Rej include: 1) a new creation story of the universe, 2) a social-political perspective based on the understanding of the “symphony of the cosmos”, 3) a moral philosophy which aspires to guide social evolution by creating foundation of values and visions related to the higher-nature of man, 4) a description of personal life where scientific reason and spiritual experiences contradict and at the same time synthesize understanding about the deeper nature of human existence, 5) an epic journey of universal man through different realms of consciousness creating the foundation of a multidimensional reality of life. 6) as well as a dialogue between “Christ-man” and God which is of mystical origin.  

Anup Rej has created paintings in water colours, acrylic and oil, made sculptures in bronze and stone, and produced artworks in metals among others. His art works are mostly mythological and surreal in nature and deeply connected to  the relations of earthly life to the cosmos and the supernatural. His main artworks are “Art Without beginning and End Moving Through the Cycle of Life Death and resurrection” and “Windows of Light” and “A Gate to the Inner Realm”.

Without bearing any prejudice or faith in a mathematical model of the universe Anup Rej has analysed the observational data of the large large structures like galaxy clusters as well as smaller cosmic structures like stars and come to the conclusion about the fractal nature of the universe. The structures in all scales take forms following similar mechanisms which involve the existence of a triple spiral at the heart of all cosmic bodies. The universe, which he proposes, organizes itself in a similar way in all scales which can be depicted as a fractal knot. The evolution of the knot decides the morphological changes in the structures as they occur when the structures are born, grow and decay. He has described the dynamics of this universe in his book “Timelessness in Time: A Journey Through a Designed Universe”.

Since then the questions of the universe and God had remained the central issues of his life. His writings include cosmology, philosophy, literature of epic dimension, and ideas about how one may build an enlightened social-political order for the future.

The ideas of Anup Rej about how a new social-political order can be brought to life which may one day replace the modern idea of democracy of equal rights of all in a participatory process deciding the social evolution. The enlightened social order gives priority to the establishment of universal values applicable to all and a vision of a higher evolution of human society beyond the arena of need and greed tied to the animal kingdom. Enlightened vision is a vision of social development which will guide human beings to understand the wholeness of the cosmos to which one belongs, and the entanglement of all in a cosmic harmony, which makes all life equally meaningful. It is a way to caste off the darkness of ignorance and discover one`s own potential to know and experience the creative and loving dimensions of human life embedded in a universe of wonder and awe. In this vision social evolution is synonymous to the higher evolution of man.

 Another field of interest of Anup Rej is music and songs. He has delved with music theory and  musical composition through visual process. He has experimented with digital music as well music piece as an animated sculpture evolving and progressing with time. He has sought to find a foundation of music in natural growth processes in the living and the non-livings worlds, as well as in the dynamics of the universe.

Here one may discuss about the universe, meaning of life, moral philosophy, and the ideas about how to build an enlightened social-order among others. The retreat includes a small concert place and an art studio, where Anup Rej develops his ideas of music and pursues artworks.
