It's a fascinating piece that fills us with questions that we can only answer ourselves. I speak about this in some of my Zen Buddhist, Japanese Art and Culture videos.

Fascinating lecture. Can you purchase a reproduction of this art anywhere? I'm not seeing anything online.

Can you bring on Shoryu Bradley of Gyobutsuji Zen Monastery in America for a talk on Zen :)!

Very articulate. The reason this work was not replicated is because the painter was Buddha.

The painter was Yoda ......and he used The Force.....
