Sacred Smallness

​

“Change isn’t just a fact of life we have to accept and work with. To feel the pain of impermanence and loss can be a profoundly beautiful reminder of what it means to exist.” – spiritual teacher Norman Fischer

​

Impermanence is the cornerstone of Buddhist teachings and practice. All that exists is

impermanent; nothing lasts. Nothing can therefore be grasped or held onto.

​

This work explores the uncertain and temporary nature of much of what we regard as reality.

 If a moment goes by unnoticed, then it is so short it might not even have occurred. But if we can attend very carefully to its passage, then we can begin to see its nature. The closer we look, the more we see. The more mindful we can be, the more depth reality holds for us. I therefore like to view each moment of my bearing witness to this world as “sacred”. No moment is ever too small to understand the arising and passing of experience, and gain as much understanding from the unfolding of the moments as I can.
