田旭桐的禅画挑战你缩减自己，或者说增加你本心之份。他的画把你吸入寂静。问你为何一定要那么忙。向你说：喝杯茶吧！抿一杯水！去散散步！坐在寂静中不动！听听小鸟！坐在水边望鱼！坐在小船里漂！不用做甚么，光坐！光看！光听！无为而无不为。无赴无往。我们已经到了，只要静下来。当下就是。在中央。 ---石百睿博士     Tian Xu Tong’s paintings challenge you to be less. Or to be more. They draw you into tranquility. They ask you why you have to be so busy. They say: Have a cup of tea! Sip a glass of water! Go for a walk! Sit in absolute stillness! Listen to the birds! Sit by the water and watch the fishes swim by. Sit in a boat and float. Don’t do, just be. Just watch. Just listen. Being contains all the doing, and leaves nothing undone. There is nowhere to go. We are already there. So just be there. Be here. In the centre. --- Dr Barry D. Steben Associate Professor The Dharmasthiti College of Cultural Studies (Hong Kong)
