""The D.T. Suzuki Museum (鈴木大拙館, Suzuki Daisetsu Kan), Kanazawa, Japan, is an ideal place for visitors both inside and outside Japan to deepen their understanding of the ideas ans achievements of Daisetz Suzuki, a prominent Buddhist philosopher, best known as D.T. Suzuki, and also a place for self-reflection.""
Info from the brochure.
It is worthwhile to visit and sit there for awhile. I liked especially the Water Mirror Garden ;-))
After a bit of deliberation I’m going with this choice, the Apple logo is only the surface I chose to reflect the pages of the book in to create some interest and a compositional point. The book is a vintage book of poems, love it for the worn gilt edges (and general tattyness)
People who have had little self-reflection live life in a huge reality
blind spot.

Reflection of the building on the left on the right building and vice versa. Arnhem, The Netherlands
I attended with my partner a lecture in Berlin last Sunday, at a Buddhist Temple presented by a Kadampa Teacher, this was in regards to the practice of Meditation, Calmness and Mindfulness.
When I arrived I was really tired, cranky and had a headache, when I left after some 4 hours of meditation practice and advice, I was whistling happy tunes, headache gone and was completely re-energised. It's remarkable how a few moments of peace and self reflection can alter everything.
The photo incidentally is from my last holiday in Schierke, central Germany, that I felt was fitting to the mood. Hence the title, I think sometimes we do allow too much externalism to overcome our inner peace (guilty as charged), make yourself the utmost point of attention and find inner peace. Trust me, it works.
I hope everyone's week is going well and so as always, thank you! :)
Note to self: I shaved, but I dislike shaving. And I dislike growth as well. Probably close to a week this time.

Oscar Wilde stated "Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not the sitter". Doing a Self portrait project, whether daily, weekly, or not on a time table but putting yourself into the image really does bring this thought to Life. For me it seems I am "in" my images more than just being in front of the lens. I hope that when viewed you can see me both in front of and behind the lens.
It is the end of year and time for some self-reflection before heralding a happy new year.
I understand that the question here is more specific but nonetheless, we must answer it too, beyond what is intended.
I was something yesterday, something different today and will be something else tomorrow. I am closer to death than I have ever been. I fall short of what I want to be. I am ever-changing and I hope for better. Being spiritual is to understand ones true nature. It is not the same as being religious. Above all else, I want to be more inclusive, accommodating, compassionate and fair. It is what I expect from others.
Most of us can reason. Few are consistent in what they speak at different times. Without it, we set one standards for ourselves and another for others. It engenders unfairness. It is the cornerstone of humanity. It demands an ability for consistent reasoning. I hope, I get better at it.
