Über das Buch
Why did I choose to call this book “A Thousand Arms”? A traditional Buddhist icon is the “Thousand Armed Bodisahatvha, or Kannon” Traditionally, it (she) symbolizes an enlightened being who chooses, rather than departing for Nirvana, to remain on Earth until all “sentient beings” are also enlightened. In statuary she is often depicted as a sensuous female with a thousand arms indicating all the ways in which she is attempting to serve all human beings. Assembling 38 years of photographs from my adventures with Bernie, I was struck with the incredible variety of skillful means this human from Brighton Beach has managed to embody.
