Bodhisattva of Compassion

 

Prints are available here: www.etsy.com/listing/51465656/8x10-bodhisattva-of-compass...

 

A Bodhisattva is a spiritual guide in the Buddhist tradition- similar the a saint or guardian spirit. Some souls are so giving that when they reach enlightenment, instead of moving on to Nirvana, they remain behind in order to help other souls along.

 

The hand signal shown is a Mudra- a hand signal meant to aid in clearing the mind. The Gyan Mudra is meant to be grounding and represents the root of your spirit and the feeling of home. I use it in this series as a dedication the the strong guiding women of my family.

 

This painting is in memory of Eve, my cousin who lived in the moment with happiness and grace.

(A continuation to the thoughts in: www.flickr.com/photos/salkhatib/4629533866/)

 

I have a question:

 

Why does it seem like such an odd concept that a person can develop a compassionate personality, to be an affectionate or loving person, without the necessity for an object of affection?

 

Do you have to "love someone" or express affection to be loving or affectionate? Does there necessarily have to be an expression of anger for a person to be angry?

 

I think anger is a normal emotion to experience and it should be one that we embrace, even express. But at the same time recognize that some displays of anger aren't appropriate, likewise there are displays of passion that aren't appropriate.

 

And I refuse to accept that having the trait of compassion relies on there being an object to which the compassion is delivered.

 

The way we behave towards others doesn't (or shouldn't) have to be a reflection of what they mean to us or a response to how we believe their perception is of us. Our behavior should be because we choose to be that way by instinct. At least this is how I strive to be.

This was one of the hundreds of children I met during my trip to Uganda last year. To make a long story short: the people I saw were in great pain, they lived in primitive conditions and despite all this; they were the most loving, kind, gentle, happy, and genuine people I have ever met.

 

Lately I've had a huge craving to go back to Uganda and help there again. Hopefully something will happen to fufill that dream.
