Blessing is like oxygen; it permeates all time and space. It is up to us to accept it.

Enlightened beings pledge to bless all sentient life. These blessings know no prejudice; they are not withheld based on merit. Like the air we breathe, blessing permeates all time and space. Our role, as individuals, is to humbly receive this boundless goodwill, finding a moment of peace and satisfaction in its presence.

Sacred geometry is the study of spiritual meaning in various spatial arrangements. Symmetry offers a balance that resonates with humankind because of our bilateral physiology. We find a sense of balance, beauty, calmness in symmetrical compositions.
Jacqueline Shiu uses Chinese classical, Tibetan Thangka, & French art nouveau motifs in her paintings to illustrate the truth, the good, and the beautiful. Geometric proportions & symmetry express dignity, righteousness, and order; organic lines & shapes embody the complexity and depth of human emotions; detail & intricacy reflect human dedication and perseverance; and flowers are symbolic of grace and perfection.
