Dogisatva
The fourth of a set of seven Tankas created as part of the All
Live is Sacred series, each with inspirational quotations and
animal Buddhas.
The featured quote
by Reverend Nan Sea was inspired by a newspaper article, unfortuntately
the author's name long-forgotten:
“If
one where able to take all the love in the universe and distill it
into the soul of a single creature, who that has know the love of
a dog could deny it would be found there. The universe in the eyes
of a dog.”
Also
subtly interwoven into the art are the words ”All Life is
Sacred” and a wonderful prayer said each morning by his
Holiness the Dalai Lama:
”As long as there are beings to be found, may I continue likewise
to remain to soothe the sufferings of those who may live.”—His
Holiness the Dalai Lama
