Mother Earth is the most beautiful Bodhisattva – landscape
โMother Earth is the most beautiful Bodhisattvaโ created as tribute to the late Thich Nhat Hanh who originally composed and calligraphed this quote in English.
Choosing landscape composition, to allow two longer lines of calligraphy, briskly bushed in cursive Umรฉ script.
A sphere of gold leaf enclosing the words เฝฆเผเฝกเฝฒเผเฝเฝผเผเฝฃเผ – ย meaning celestial sphere of planetary Earth.
Gold; because the mythological basis of our precious world is symbolically described as made of gold – เฝเฝฆเฝบเฝขเผเฝเพฑเฝฒเผเฝฆเผเฝเฝเฝฒเผ
