Framed Buddhist Monk Artwork
Globalization had a significant impact on religion as well, with people being nowadays aware of religions that used to be popular in remote parts of the world. The same interest is shared in regard to artistic movements and FramedArt.com can provide those fascinated by Oriental culture with great Framed Buddhist Monk Art. The paintings have a soothing effect on the audience and inspire people to take a step back and reflect or even meditate, while also changing the mood in any room.
Buddhist Monks go by the names of bhikkhu and enjoy a lifestyle that is governed by a strict set of rules, which are supposed to support spiritual practice. The idea is to live a simple life and focus mostly on meditation, with the ultimate goal being to attain nirvana. The message is clearly conveyed by Framed Buddhist Monk Art, with the vast majority of the images capturing the monks meditating.
These Framed Buddhist Monk Art are dominated by vibrant colors, with orange being the most common one. The reason for why virtually all the monks are elderly people is that only those above 20 years old can be ordained and it takes a lot of time to climb the hierarchy. It takes plenty of willpower and commitment to abandon a life as a householder and dedicate yourself to studying full-time, under the careful supervision of a master. For many years, monks were exclusively men, but this has changed and it should be eventually reflected artwork as well.
