My Suggestion For The Universal Panacea<br />

‘Grandma’s Kind Regard’ or<br />

‘Sleep-Nursing On The Lily’<br />

Akshobya Buddha (China) Sui Dynasy (581 to 618 C.E.)<br />

It began some years ago as a spin-off from that same photo of<br />

the Chinese Akshobya Buddha sculpture I mentioned earlier.<br />

The Buddha’s eyebrows are slightly raised, eyelids drooping,<br />

the corners of his mouth turned up in a half-smile.<br />

“Do these icons contain teachings?” I asked myself. Perhaps<br />

their postures, expressions and gestures are a preliterate way<br />

of distributing important information and should be copied, as<br />

per Dr. Felicitas Goodman’s research into the trance-inducing<br />

posture statues of ancient shamans. 23<br />
