Description
The sculptural composition is one of the works of the Signs of the Zodiac cycle, representing small Bodhisattvas rising in a meditative state in the lotus position above their symbolic sign. According to the spiritual teachings of the East, the current era will be characterized by the arrival in the world of a thousand Buddhas – enlightened and conscious ones. “Buddha” literally means: “awakened” or “enlightened”, that is, the one who completely purified his essence and opened the extraordinary possibilities of the spiritual nature of the God-man.
The Capricorn boy sits in the lotus position in complete concentration. The inspired, concentrated face of the Bodhisattva testifies to deep immersion in the peace of the Spirit. The intense mental activity of the boy with full responsibility creates whole worlds around him. Humanity is only beginning to realize the great creative or destructive power of thoughts. Consciousness cleansed of egoistic aspirations by the power of thinking about the common good can contribute to the realization of this good in the world. The author depicted the Capricorn sculpture in the creative process with the efforts of pure opinion.
The Capricorn zodiac sign expresses a new turn in the development of consciousness. In nature, this is the period when light finally defeats darkness and the daylight hours increase. Those born under this sign, who are used to hardening difficulties, personify the rock: the real masters of their destiny, at the cost of extraordinary efforts, they are able to achieve even the most difficult goals. Capricorns are from the cohort of those people who perceive hard work as happiness, so they achieve great mastery in their chosen affairs.
In the cosmic sense, this is a sign that tests the spirit for maturity. Born in the period of Capricorn are not random people at all, but those who are really ready to confidently go to the top of the spiritual open. A strong sense of duty, willpower, perseverance, maximum responsibility, and objectivity will help Capricorns to complete complex tasks of a comic scale.
