While visiting some temple ruins in Western Tibet, I encountered a beautiful small clay Buddha inside an old temple hall.
This small radiating statue energetically filled out the whole space which was once constructed to accommodate a very large Buddha statue which got destroyed.

This became the inspiration for my painting, at the bottom of which a small red figure can be seen, as well as a faint outline evoking a much larger figure: a Buddha with a lotus flower at the top of his head, indicating the flowering of the seventh chakra.
A decorative pattern consisiting of 108 tiny spirals embosses the Buddha's aura.

We may perceive ourselves as trifle beings, but down the ages wise men and women have reminded us of our true spiritual nature. One of those enlightened guides was Ashtavakra (500-400 AD), whose words are part of the Advaita teachings. A quote from the Ashtavakra Samhita or Gita can be found at the bottom of the canvas. In English it reads:


You pervade this universe
and this universe exists in you.
You are really Pure Consciousness by nature.
Do not be small-minded!
