“Don’t prolong the past, Don’t invite the future, Don’t alter your innate wakefulness, Don’t fear appearances, There’s nothing more than that!”

Emaho (ཨེ་མ་ཧོ་) is an exclamation in Tibetan used to express wonder, awe, and profound appreciation. It is often found in spiritual texts and prayers, conveying deep gratitude or amazement at the beauty of the natural world, the profound teachings of the Dharma, or the realization of ultimate truth. The phrase is imbued with a sense of reverence and joy, symbolizing a direct recognition of something sacred or transcendent. In Buddhist practice, saying “e ma ho” serves as a spontaneous outpouring of spiritual joy and appreciation for the preciousness of life and enlightenment.

In Buddhism, “as it is” refers to seeing reality directly, free from conceptual elaboration, hopes, fears, and habitual projections. Rather than perceiving the world through the lens of attachment and aversion, one learns to encounter experience exactly as it appears. In Dzogchen, this principle points to the recognition of the mind’s primordial nature, naturally pure, luminous, and already complete. Nothing needs to be fabricated, improved, or rejected. Thoughts, emotions, and perceptions arise and dissolve within awareness without altering its essence. To rest in “as it is” is to recognize the inseparability of appearance and emptiness, samsara and nirvana.

This piece features the Tibetan words for hope (rewa) and fear (jigpa). Rewa is featured in white while jigpa is solid black.
In Tibetan Buddhism, hope and fear are often seen as two sides of the same attachment. Hope arises when we cling to desired outcomes, while fear appears when we try to avoid pain, loss, or uncertainty. Together, they keep the mind restless and dependent on external conditions for happiness.
An endless knot rests above the word “fear” as a symbol of wisdom overcoming grasping and uncertainty. In Tibetan Buddhism, fear arises from attachment and the illusion of separateness. The knot, representing interconnection, compassion, and the timeless nature of mind, presses down upon fear and dissolves its hold. What appears tangled becomes whole. What appears threatening becomes part of a larger unity.

“A well-trained mind brings happiness.”
This quote from the Dhammapada teaches us that true happiness comes from inner discipline rather than external circumstances. In Buddhism, the mind is seen as the source of both suffering and peace. An untrained mind is easily controlled by anger, fear, craving, and distraction, leading to dissatisfaction. A trained mind, however, develops awareness, patience, compassion, and wisdom. Through practices such as meditation and mindfulness, a person learns to respond calmly instead of reacting impulsively. The quote suggests that lasting happiness is not something we obtain from the world, but something cultivated within ourselves through mental clarity and self-understanding.

The text in this piece comes from the famous 823 CE treaty pillar standing outside the sacred Jokhang Temple in Lhasa. The inscription commemorates a peace agreement between the Tibetan Empire and the Tang Dynasty of China after generations of warfare and shifting borders across Central Asia. Carved in both Tibetan and Chinese, the treaty speaks of peace, mutual respect, and recognized frontiers between the two great powers of the time.
I was especially drawn to the passage stating that “Tibetans shall be happy in the land of Tibet and Chinese happy in the land of China”. To me, it captures a rare historical moment in which two neighboring civilizations formally acknowledged one another and expressed the hope that each people could live peacefully in their own land. More than twelve centuries later, the inscription remains one of the most important surviving records of Tibetan history and diplomacy.
The extract featured in this piece is the following:
“This great treaty, established so that Tibetans shall be happy in the land of Tibet and Chinese happy in the land of China, shall never be changed. The three Jewels, the assembly of noble ones, the sun and moon and the planets and stars are invoked as witnesses.”

This piece features the Tibetan word for Karma, “Le” repeated and arranged in a shape resembling a wheel. In Tibetan Buddhism, the wheel, or khorlo (Sanskrit: chakra), is a powerful symbol representing the cycle of samsara—the endless cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. It symbolizes the repetitive nature of human existence, driven by ignorance, attachment, and aversion. I’ve chosen to leave the circle open to represent our ability to escape the cycle of samsara.
Karma, or Le, plays a central role in perpetuating the repetitive cycle of samsara. This piece, therefore, aims to symbolize the manner in which karma creates the framework for the wheel of samsara.

This is piece features a portion of the Heart Sutra.
The Heart Sutra is one of the most profound and concise scriptures in Tibetan Buddhism, encapsulating the essence of *Prajñāpāramitā* (Perfection of Wisdom). It teaches the doctrine of *Śūnyatā* (emptiness), emphasizing that all phenomena lack inherent existence. Central to the sutra is the phrase, “Form is emptiness, emptiness is form,” illustrating the inseparability of appearance and emptiness. In Tibetan Buddhism, the *Heart Sutra* is recited for purification, insight, and overcoming delusion. It is a key text for developing wisdom and realizing the true nature of reality.

This verse from the Dhammapada points to the primacy of mind in shaping experience. A “pure mind” suggests intentions free from delusion and attachment. When thoughts and actions arise from this clarity, they naturally align with harmony and compassion. Happiness, then, is not something chased externally but something that unfolds as a consequence of inner integrity. Like a shadow, it follows effortlessly and consistently, not because life becomes perfect, but because one’s relationship to it transforms. The teaching emphasizes responsibility: by refining the mind, one quietly but profoundly reshapes the quality of one’s entire life.

“Drive all blames into one” points to the practice of locating the source of suffering not in the world, but in the self-centered grasping that filters experience. Instead of scattering blame outward onto people, events, or conditions, this teaching invites turning inward to recognize ego-clinging as the root distortion. The teaching cuts through ego’s habit of projection and returns power to the only place change is possible: your own mind and how it relates to experience.
