Ahimsa, the resting cow
Now on display at the Hoorneboegse heide in Hilversum until the end of February.
‘Ahimsa’ is travelling through the Netherlands to thank and honor the cow for giving so generously for centuries. She refers to Mother Earth.
Meaning Ahimsa (in short): nonviolence and respect for all life.
The cow mirrors our inner peace. She learns us to slow down and shows us our need for connection. Animals are not busy becoming something, they just are.
Ahimsa, welcomes you in her cirkel. If we stay in tune with ourselves and all that lives on this magical planet we will discover that everyone contributes something valuable. By giving back to the land and the animals and to each other, by sharing, we will find a joy hidden within.
My gratitude goes out to my buddy Dirk-Jan Schrander (guitar builder), it was loving and joyful working with him on the cow sculpture. 🤍Working together
