Emergence of the Middle Way

Dimensions of Being Series ​
Encaustic on wood panel
24" Diameter, 2016

The Middle Way in Buddhism means: The practice of non-extremism: a path of moderation away from the extremes of self-indulgence and self-mortification.  An explanation of Nirvana (perfect enlightenment), a state wherein it becomes clear that all dualities apparent in the world are delusory. Another term for emptiness, the ultimate nature of all phenomena (in the Mahayana branch), a lack of inherent existence, which avoids the extremes of permanence and nihilism or inherent existence and nothingness.       -Wikipedia
 
Oceans of thought formations we have morning, noon and night…haunting us, this persistent nostalgia of time itself.
