Artist statement
“Buddha’s Law says life hold two kinds of truth. They are Cause and Effect. Everything we have today is because of what happened yesterday. It’s not some creative design. We are the designers of our own fate. A bad act brings bad things, and a good act brings good things. What makes us act badly? The answer is easy - it is our innocence. Our life’s poverty is based on a “bad” innocence, or acting without thinking, giving into our greed. I like this kind of truth. And I can meditate anywhere, even in bed. After 14 years, meditation for me means observing myself - what is wrong or right in my mind today? Every day I can make more mistakes, but I am mindful of correcting myself tomorrow. And then I fall asleep.” - Phyoe Kyi on I Never Sleep Without Meditation
