Too many people rush around competing, consuming, collecting things in a rush to be bigger and better. But this reveals only inner emptiness, a lack of peace within.

It’s fascinating, how color relationships change when you change the composition. I hate to admit this but I didn’t realize at first where the original for this mandala came from. But when I did, I looked back at the fennel photo, then at the mandala, and I was struck by how the green comes forward here and all the colors support one another harmoniously. I wouldn’t say the colors don’t do that in the original but the mandala makes it apparent, like a blossoming. I hope that makes sense. Thank you, Graham.

Oh, my thanks to you, Lynn! The idea of the becoming of a mandala, its emergence from the ground/emptiness/tao, as a ‘blossoming’ appeals to me a lot, as I am sure you will understand.

That did occur to me. 🙂 This mandala really expresses that. Maybe I see it more here because I compared it to the original (should we call it the root picture?)
