The positioning of the two trees in the painting was superbly arranged. Only half of one of the trees was painted into the picture. The Supreme Master Ching Hai said, "Only in this way could people continue to imagine how the tree grows taller. It would be meaningless if the whole tree could be seen!" Although the trees are positioned on different levels, they are on the practice, but all of us are heading for the same goal, and keep growing tall. We have no fear of all the trials on our path. Our faith is strong and steady. The painting is saturated with a unique kind of lonesome beauty, signifying the solitary yet noble state of mind of a sincere spiritual practitioner. |
