I am the echo of my doing.
When there is only doing and no echo
There is no me.
When there is ceaseless echo
There is too much me.
Is doing and not knowing I am doing it
Worth doing at all?
Is hearing nothing but the echo of doing
Worth doing at all.
When I speak
It is silent.
When I am silent
It speaks.
I am the reflection on the glass
When looking at the world
Through the window.
When I see the world
I don't see me.
And when I see me
I don't see the world.
When I see
I see it.
When it sees
It sees me.
The Last Temptation of the Buddha
This is my favorite depiction and pose of the Buddha.
The story surrounding it is akin to Christ's temptation in the wilderness by Satan. Swap Siddhartha Gautama for Jesus and Mara for Satan and it's basically the same'ish story with a very important difference.
In the biblical story, Jesus is tempted for forty days and nights by the most evil being in existence; doing its damnedest to convince Jesus to renounce his throne and bow down to Satan and all the world will be his. Juxtaposed to the Buddha story we have Siddhartha – a prince himself like Jesus – sitting under a tree meditating, with Mara – a 'demon
I'm done.
I don't think I'll be an artist anymore.
