The impossible is limited to existence, predictions, and “natural law,” whereas in art everything is possible. In zen, Mind, with its unlimited capacity for conception, contains all solutions to alleviate, as well as create, suffering. Hence, the perceived creation anxiety of artist, media, and art (fisher, gourd, catfish).
satkayadristi: “separateness, a mistaken belief in the individual as distinct from the whole.”
