The Magic of the Cities.

Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

Rural Scenes






" I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion, and elimination of ignorance, selfishness, and greed. " -Dalai Lama

" Creo que todo sufrimiento es causado por la ignorancia. Las personas infligen dolor a otros en la búsqueda egoísta de la felicidad o satisfacción. Sin embargo, la verdadera felicidad proviene de una sensación de paz y satisfacción, que a su vez debe ser alcanzada a través del cultivo del altruismo, del amor y la compasión y la eliminación de la ignorancia, el egoísmo y la codicia. " -Dalai Lama
