“Get squeezed, make some sound. what goes up, must come down.”

Why this Artwork?

The enlightened ducky is not just a childhood relic but a symbol of enduring calm amidst external pressures. When squeezed, it responds not with resistance but with a sound that reflects its inherent nature. Unperturbed, it returns to its serene state, embodying the principles of Buddhm.

What Does It Convey?

This artwork whispers twin tales of Buddhm:

  1. Self-Resilience: In life, when pressures mount, our inner response should mirror the ducky. Instead of succumbing to anger or frustration, let out an unexpected chirp of joy or humor. The provocations from the world should not have the power to disrupt one’s inner peace, but rather be an opportunity to radiate our true essence.
  2. Being an Anchor: On the flip side, be the enlightened ducky for others. In a world ridden with turbulence, sometimes, all one needs is a non-reactive presence to vent. Absorb the external chaos, provide comfort, and in doing so, stay grounded in Buddhm. Allow others to find momentary peace in your equanimity.

How to Embrace This Philosophy?

In moments of turmoil, internal or external, remember the enlightened ducky. Instead of reacting with expected emotions, surprise the universe with your Buddhm-inspired response. Let it be a gentle reminder that disturbances need not shatter one’s tranquility. Instead, they can be a call to resonate with the symphony of Buddhm that lies within each one of us.
