Upekkha Painting

Like all the titles in this series, the word Upekkha comes from the Pali language and means equanimity, it is the peace that we call stoic, although in this series I would call it Buddhist. Would I be understood in the same way?… I must admit that for many, many years I was unable to distinguish equanimity from indifference. It seemed to me that if I was not emotionally involved, I remained indifferent. But this approach is a big mistake, because the lack of emotional involvement does not exclude active involvement, it does not exclude action. Moreover, it allows anyone to act properly because his or her mind is not entangled in fear, lust, hatred, the desire for revenge or infatuation. One acts calmly, leaving the result free from judgment. One does everything to make it successful, but does not get attached to what will happen, because no matter what happens, one will remain calm, which allows to take the right further action. This artwork is painted on canvas stretched on wooden frame. I was using professional oil-colours with premium quality colour pigments that have high resistance to fading. Sides are continuously painted, so there is no need to frame. The picture is accompanied with a certificate of authenticity and ready for wall mounting. The work of art will be professionally carefully packed, shipped and insured. Shipment can be followed to your doorstep with the track & trace code.
