Edmund V. Gillon Jr

Tibetan Tantric Charm Amulet (reproduced from the original woodblock) , 1978.

 

 

 

‘The fundamental tenet of the Vedanta school consisted not in denying the existence of matter, that is of solidity, impenetrability, and extended figure (to deny which would be lunacy), but in correcting the popular notion of it, and in contending that it has no essence independent of mental perception; that existence and perceptibility are convertible terms.’

 

(arthur schopenhauer, the world as will and representation, leipzig 1819)
