Why
is the painting named "Discussion"?
The
Supreme Master Ching Hai says, "Most people's discussions are
based upon what they read! They have no personal experience. Therefore,
I suggest that they just put two books here! All their opinions are
from the books! The table is slanted, symbolizing their ill-conceived
thoughts and concepts. The somber colors represent the level of the
Asuras, who are fond of arguing, quarrelling and fighting with each
other. Both of the books are called 'No.1'. Both claiming to be the
ultimate, they are engaged in a heated argument."
