Om Mani Padme Hung echoes outward and forms a border for the journey into this piece. Sitting atop an all seeing unfolding cosmic lotus, the bodhisattva rendition of myself finds true harmony in the universe, confluencing with the cosmos. Manifesting thigles offering knowledge of Rigpa and Breath, while holding staffs of destruction and creation. The hands unfolding extend various objects of auspiciousness as well as tools of my trade. I meditate under a celestial chatra with 3 monk’s bowls to my front, and in the foremost bowl an illuminated jewel of the dharmachakra shines through as the solitary offering. There exists a balance between the light on the top and the darkness on the bottom, representing equanimity. The mani at the center illuminates a flower of life energy source. An additional rainbow orb envelopes me, and the luminescence of the chakras shine brighter aligned in the center. The third eyes are open on each of my multiple heads, to allow additional metaphysical input for the eyes and ears of compassion. A third vajra can be seen enlightening the energy behind the top cranial stack, and a smiling green head and an upset red head can also be seen on the cumulation below. The background energy was inspired by the shrine on Mount Putuo.
\u2638\u2638
Bodhisattva – Avalokiteskarl
\u2638
I am devotion of compassion
to save the suffering sentient beings
For in the potential existence of life
there must be cosmic anguish
\u2638
I must take a step out of myself
to understand I am everything that is
ever was and ever will be
billions of years of affliction
cycling samsaric states of incarnation
\u2638
Thus I follow the cosmic order
of law, truth and balance
perpetually performing dharma 
For it is our desires that causes our suffering
to yearn for things out of our control
constant distractions from core issues
ignoring the seeds growing from unknown
\u2638
Yet if you look within yourself
and you follow the voice that isn’t inside your head
a voice that comes from beyond within
look deeper than what one defines as self
and heed the emerging wisdom discovered 
\u2638\u2638
Where is my ground?
Where is my center?
That primordial state
that amoebic realm
A space that knows no space
no time no place to be
with borderline existlessness
and a glimpse of the source
the singularity of being
wholesomeness with the cosmos
Where is my space?
Where is my rainbow body?
