ZOCALO GALLERY | The Seven Tibetan Monk Skulls
Ⅰ．The Silent Eye — Eyes that stare into silence
A prayer that melted into the darkness,
It still shines deep inside.
In the silence, enlightenment subtly breathes.
Ⅱ．Guardian of Emptiness — Guardian of the Sky
That there is nothing,
I will continue to protect it so much that no one knows about it.
True power resides in the intangible.
Ⅲ. The Laughing Sage
Turn sadness into laughter,
Celebrating life beyond death. That
A smile is a form of compassion.
Ⅳ．Bearer of Flames — Lover of Fire
Lust, anger, everything burns out, just
It disappears leaving only the light behind.
Fire is a symbol of purification, not destruction.
Ⅴ. The Whisper of Bones
The voice of a life that has passed,
Whispering in my ear like the wind.
Ⅵ．The Ascetic Dreamer — Ascetic Dreamer
Deep inside the loneliness and pain,
A person who knows that there is infinite freedom.
Dreams are a deeper training than reality.
Ⅶ．Rebirth Keeper — Guardian of Rebirth
Every end returns to the beginning.
Its eyes see the light budding in death.
A person who quietly watches over the gate of reincarnation.
