Buddhist Quotes

During the last 2,500 years in Buddhist monasteries, a system of seven practices of reconciliation has evolved.

[I’m concerned with] aesthetics and this idea of how the passage between life and death goes. I can visually present that by borrowing this Buddhist statue Picture Quote #1

For me, a male image that I’m really moved by is somewhere between of Oscar Wilde type of a male: the fop, the long hair, the suits, too witty for his own good, incredibly smart, scathingly funny - all that. But then my other ideal is more like the Buddhist monk - the shaved head, actually someone who sublimates their sexuality Picture Quote #1
