The venerable appears to recollect and reflect with an alert look, possessing the keenness to hold the Dharma through mindful wisdom, remember without lapse, and awaken contemplative insight through right mindfulness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePainted by Li Zongyi in the freehand Chinese ink (xieyi) tradition, the brushwork is fluent and the ink tones layered from dense to pale, capturing the arhat’s spirit in a few assured strokes.
