Photos capture the path of Buddhism

Instantaneous Revelation. A new young monk is lost in thought staring into the distance. The Zen sect in Buddhism pursues "insight, or instant satori", that is, during the precise and probing process of learning Buddhism, Buddhist learners are edified by the classics of sutras, inspired by virtuous Kalyana-mitras—good and wise advisors, or triggered by something and then obtaining experience in self awareness of a fundamentally instantaneous revelation about the profound Buddhist state.
