Before a tranquil sea at sunset, a wise teacher
stands, his face serene, infinite understanding and
compassion in his humor-filled eyes. Above his head
floats a water lily, symbol of purity and serenity.
He radiates calm and compassionate love, while his
crossed arms show self-containment and discipline
of the emotions. Awareness, control and peace are
at his command, while his love and compassion are as
deep as the dark sea. Let your heart open, says
the King of Water... but do not let your emotions
drown you. The way of wisdom is detachment...
