Zen paradox: "What do you do when you have freed yourself of all desire except the desire to be free of desire?" (Bizarro.com) |
In the story a monk requests the truth of the universe from the Buddha, who in turn asks the seeker to let go.
He puts down his flower offering, separates his palms held in añjali mudrā, but the Buddha still requests he let go.
What else is there to let go of?
Kwan's artwork appeared in Volume 3 of Culturecom's manga series The Legend of Guan Yin.
