Kigaku Noah Rossetter: Painting Boundlessness – Exploring Emptiness Through the Metaphor of Color

Summary: Episode Description: In this talk, Kigaku Noah Rossetter explores Śūnyatā, or boundlessness, by taking us through the boundless spectrum of color. Kigaku asks, “Where do we draw the lines that separate one color from the next?” He shows us that the distinctions we make are arbitrary and the lines that divide the color spectrum are of our own creation. Kigaku goes further, relating the boundless nature of color with that of life, politics, race, and our very sense of self, and shows that,“Seeing these lines as inherent and real is suffering.”<br> To help keep these podcasts freely available, we hope you will consider making a suggested donation of $25 to our <a title="Give to Upaya's Dharma Podcast Fund" href="https://www.upaya.org/give/fund.php?id=10" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dharma Podcast Fund</a>.<br> <br>
