B r u s h S o n g Journal: October 2011

B r u s h S o n g Journal. Monday, October 31, 2011. The Tree (and piglets). The last 2 weeks in Bodh Gaya at the INEB conference have been amazing. This is a descendent of the bodhi tree under which Siddhartha was enlightened, on the same spot with the shrine erected around it. I've visited it just about everyday, what a powerful place. In touching my forehead as the pilgrims do, I could almost hear him breathe, feel his skin. His presence is palpable. Links to this post. Monday, October 17, 2011.

B r u s h S o n g Journal: July 2012
http://brushsong.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
B r u s h S o n g Journal. Tuesday, July 31, 2012. Following in the Footsteps of Surfers. . . I remember the day I discovered and bought my first Patagonia jacket. It was a moss green fuzzy made from recycled plastic bottles. I was amazed by the transformation involved and proudly wore it for about 8 years- until my mother fell in love with it too. In light of what we're building with AKSHA, a friend sent me this link to an interview with Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard. His ideals of sustainability.

B r u s h S o n g Journal: December 2011

B r u s h S o n g Journal. Thursday, December 22, 2011. In these places, I ask myself, "What can we do? Or, should we do anything at all. Often, I am seduced by the bells and incense, the fervent chanting, the pomp and circumstance of rituals that seem ancient, mysterious and sublime. In the face of such pageantry, why question anything? Photo by Manjusri Balangoda. Amanda and Steve prep for the climb in our hotel room. The coins are then wrapped in a white cloth and tied to our wrists with mantra. We cl...

B r u s h S o n g Journal: March 2014
http://brushsong.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
B r u s h S o n g Journal. Monday, March 17, 2014. And Happy Saint Patrick's Day! As you may have noticed, I've neglected this personal blog since the end of 2012, when I launched into a long-term project called AKSHA. Its been a large, life-changing experience which involved moving from Brooklyn to Bangkok, a year-long Fulbright Fellowship in sacred sculpture, a Kickstarter campaign. A new children's book. A new 150-meter art installation. And my first line of jewelry called LUMINOUS. Links to this post.

B r u s h S o n g Journal: Welcome to Pohchang: Studying Buddhist Sculpture in Thailand
http://brushsong.blogspot.com/2012/11/welcome-to-pohchang-studying-buddhist.html
B r u s h S o n g Journal. Friday, November 30, 2012. Welcome to Pohchang: Studying Buddhist Sculpture in Thailand. Ajahn Pei speaking to a class. Still, the first two weeks there were nothing short of amazing. My mentor, Ajahn Somyot Kumsang- we call him Ajahn Pei, first asked me to create a relief of a seated Buddha in clay. It was a revelation. I've seen hundreds of Buddha images and statues, but nothing compares to the experience of forming one yourself. What proportions do I use? I ask him how to us...

B r u s h S o n g Journal: February 2015
http://brushsong.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
B r u s h S o n g Journal. Monday, February 09, 2015. A new recording of the profound Nalikae Tree lullaby, with a direct English translation by Prof. Peter Skilling. A palm tree, a palm tree,. A solitary palm tree stands alone. In the middle of a sea of wax. Rain does not touch it,. Nor does thunder reach it. In the middle of a sea of wax. The only ones who reach it. Are those who go beyond good and bad.". Recording by Chatupon Phechobun. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

B r u s h S o n g Journal: Path of No Path
http://brushsong.blogspot.com/2012/12/path-of-no-path.html
B r u s h S o n g Journal. Thursday, December 13, 2012. Path of No Path. I am a seeker of logic. I am a teaser of knots. I like to take puzzles and figure them out. Even if I know it's not possible, I feel compelled to strive for it anyway. Yet these ideals are all my traps. They are the torture chambers of my mind. But what if one day we realize, there is no road. Actually. And because there is no road, we cannot be lost. How would I live my life differently? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
