There are 3 layers of reality in the painting. The first is represented by the cloaked self in the foreground, as the outermost manifestation in the tangible, physical reality. It’s a moment after a meditation sitting under the Quercus, bringing back a faint trace of silence and vastness. The second level is manifesting in the oak tree, a beautiful being connecting in one flow the lower, middle and upper worlds in a deeply silent alchemy of mixing water and light, fully immersed in the outward service of the Earth. A true landlord. The third layer manifests itself in the white sky background that covers all and penetrates all, representing the ultimate focus and source. As a matter of fact a 4th layer is present as well, connecting all three, namely the actual red background illuminating through everything, forming the true fabric of reality. It’s the all encompassing field that penetrates through in every moment.
