Vacant realm

Description

This work is based on a theme “Empty boat”. Often, we see others or outside as “Empty boat”. It is written in Zhuangzi Shanmu that if an empty boat collided, we would not attribute the responsibility to that empty boat, nor would we be angry. And if there is someone on the boat, we will attribute the incident to the other party’s responsibility. Without knowing the specific reasons, we will first attribute the responsibility to the other party, so as to burn the anger at the other party, and at the same time allow ourselves to indulge in pain. A subjective, cognition of “empty boat” allows us to relief from worldly anger and pain.
