This painting is inspired from a buddhist manuscript “Prajanaparamita”. Prajnaparamita is a Sanskrit word that means “perfection of wisdom.” In the Mahayana Buddhist tradition, prajnaparamita is a central concept as well as a body of sutras, or religious teachings presented in the form of short statements. The term comes from prajna, meaning “wisdom” and paramita, meaning "perfection."

 

The wisdom of prajnaparamita is a transcendent form and is the realization of a concept called sunyata, or emptiness. It can also be described as being able to discern truth or reality.

 

Prajnaparamita is also the name of a female deity who personifies transcendent wisdom.
