Satvat - Bodhidharma / Diogenes - acrylic on canvas 40x60 cm, 2011 |
Bodhidharma brought to China the most esoteric teaching of the Buddha, the enlightenment which is direct flower within the Zen. Waiting for a person mature enough to receive the message, Bodhidharma remained for years in meditation facing to a wall of rock. Similarly, Diogenes was looking for a man worthy of being called such, and to emphasize the profound meaning of his research took the lighted lantern even in the daytime, he wanted to find the light of the soul in man, which is what makes us truly human.
In this dramatic moment, hurt by the worst expropriation of the soul, the figures of Bodhidharma Diogenes and show our responsibility, that there is primarily, as human beings, keeping the candle lit interior, despite the darkness that weighs around.
