The Himalayas of Tibet have surrounded the figure who has turned his back to conventional knowledge as he seeks that which is inward/outward while facing the unknown. The man climbs the path on his journey far to obtain this wisdom/enlightenment. Behind him is the hand of Buddha planting a seed of faith so that this man may receive his blessing. The lotus fills his cup blossoming within. The three peaks of knowledge separated by blue represent the three Patriarchs of the Buddhist Forshang Temple. The totemic colors represent universal knowledge.
