RE: Arhats in Agony and Pain, in the Exhibition
Some very dramatic and arresting photos, my friend.
I agree - these are depictions of pain and agony - one of the many gateways to enlightenment.
The expressions remind me of Matthew Arnold's poem where he describes the eternal note of sadness and remarks,
Sophocles long ago
Heard it on the Ægean, and it brought
Into his mind the turbid ebb and flow
Of human misery
He used the metaphor of sea waves to represent the eternal ebb and flow of human pain.
Very compelling, @slowwalker
