The wisdom of the human race
Our consciousness is not actually yours or mine; it is the consciousness of man; evolved, grown, accumulated through many, many centuries...
When one realizes this our responsibility becomes extraordinarily important.

What Remains
It was in the afternoon.I was sitting on my grandpa?s couch. The door was slightly open and I saw light coming through, washed out between the white door and white walls. All of a sudden it all started making sense. I could relate what I was seeing with what I felt. John and Prova, my grandparents. While growing up, I found much love and care from them. They were young and strong. As time went by it shaped everything in it?s own way. Bodies took different forms and relations went distant. Grandma?s hair turned gray, the walls started peeling off and the objects were all that remained. Everything was contained into one single room. They always loved the fact that I take pictures of them, because then I spend more time with them and they don?t feel lonely anymore. After Prova passed away, I try to visit more so John can talk. He tells me stories of their early life, and how they met. There are so many stories. Here, life is silent, suspended. Everything is on a wait. A wait for something that I don?t completely understand?

Rat Tribe
Twenty-three-year-old He Bing tries on his new shirt and borrowed suit and tie for size the night before an examination to become an insurance salesman, Beijing, China, March 10, 2011. Bing recently arrived to Beijing from Chongqing City, moving into a central Beijing basement room that he shares with two others. Faced with sky-high property prices, living underground is often the only option for this legion of low-waged migrant workers, who make up one-third of Beijing?s estimated 20 million people.

At an altitude of 4000 meters, a footbridge made of cables and branches enables people to reach Phuktal monastery. (Zanskar Yalley, North India).
Every that happens only sings one song, it is the song of emptiness and fulfilment.
The world we experience is a world of actions and mind, light and darkness, a dance in which separation does not exist. Jack Kornfield
