Ven. Thubten Chodron on universal responsibility

in this morning’s dicert email to you I’m amazed and deeply touched by all you shared in your sketches and these notations of your personal responses to my labyrinth piece. I cherish your perception and appreciate the insights into your own creative process all the more because so much of my own process seems completely out of my awareness. These pieces I create are not planned by me at all, but rather show up on the page when I sit before the blank page with pen in hand. Others often see images within the pieces that I don’t until they’re pointed out to me.I suspect the less complex examples in the journal you purchased (designed to invite others to experiment with writing the labyrinth as I do) may be of less interest to you as an artist than the more complex pieces I’ve shared on the Labyrinth Journal website and on my Giraffe Journal blog. I invite you to share whatever you see in any of my pieces, whenever you feel moved to do so.I sense I have much to learn from you. Thanks so much. I share here for the benefit of others who may be interested, and I look forward to continuing our conversation in email.Hugs and blessings,Virginia
