All things conditioned are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, or shadows. Yet within this impermanence, the soul watches and serves. Act without attachment — not because the world is unreal, but because the Self is eternal.”

In the foreground is a Sketchbook with an ink on wash sketch of a Zen master Seated between flowers in vases. Behind him there's an altar with more flowers and candles and a circular mirror behind his head. Behind the Sketchbook is a computer screen showing Hyon Gak Sunim giving a talk on the Diamond Sutra. May all beings be free of all suffering.
No subject, no object - just pure emptiness! A quick #inkandwash #sketch of Hyon Gak Sunim who today discussed ch 13-16 of the #DiamondSutra May all beings know peace 🙏 #zen #buddhism #art
An ink sketch of 3 stacked skulls, illuminated from above on a rounded shelf.
This is one of the altars in Zen Centre Regensburg situated behind Hyon Gak Sunim, who is discussing the #DiamondSutra every Sunday until Feb 9. May all beings see through delusion 🙏 #inksketch #art #bskyart #dharma #meditation #zen
The most important #sutra ever composed. It far outweighs the #DiamondSutra in significance. This is a copy of the original #ScriptureoftheGoldenEternity by #JackKerouac. It was written on a dare.

"All conditioned phenomena are like a dream, an illusion,
a bubble, a shadow;
like dew or a flash of lightning…
thus we shall perceive them."
