This painting by the renowned Zen master and artist Hakuin Ekaku, titled "Two Blind Men Crossing a Log Bridge," depicts two blind men navigating a precarious log bridge. The minimalist brushstrokes and use of ink create a sense of movement and uncertainty, highlighting the fragility of life and the importance of mutual support. The work reflects Hakuin's Zen philosophy, emphasizing the pursuit of enlightenment through self-reflection and meditation. The simplicity of the composition and the use of negative space create a serene and contemplative atmosphere, inviting viewers to contemplate the themes of vulnerability and resilience.
