The Stillness of Space and Line was inspired by The Mustard Seed Garden Manual of Painting. Although it was inspired by the classic manual of oriental painting, this book does not teach how to paint or draw. It is more about how to see and experience Stillness. You can enjoy this book on many levels. It contains interesting black and white images as well as a meditation enhancing experience. The images are for meditation and peace. Follow the flowing lines as they divide and open the space before you. Use the images to relax and transform your current state of mind. Find one that speaks to you at this moment. Allow yourself to discover the quiet stillness within each image. Breathe into the lines and inhale from the space that holds the lines. The lines arise from the empty space and remain part of the connection to the presence of the moment. The second edition features a chapter using Zen Brush. The images are timeless and alive with presence.
