"Inverted Dzogchen: A Visionary Journey Beyond Perspective"

 

This series of (24) images explores Inverted Dzogchen, an embodiment of non-dual awareness through the dissolution of conventional perception. Inspired by the practice of seeing from beyond self-imposed orientations, each image reveals a world turned inside out, upside down, yet profoundly still.

  • "The View from No View"

    • A serene Buddha figure, suspended upside down, yet perfectly composed, mirrors itself in a still lake. Above and below dissolve into one, illustrating the inseparability of relative and absolute reality. The golden sky suggests pure awareness, beyond ordinary perception.
  • "Groundlessness: No Center, No Edge"

    • A yogi in an inverted meditation posture floats between clouds and reflections, making it impossible to tell which way is up. The world appears weightless, reminding the viewer that attachment to position is an illusion.
  • "Beyond Opposites"

    • A cosmic practitioner, rotating freely in space, embraces the paradox of falling without falling. Their expression is tranquil, untouched by gravity or direction. The universe spins around them, yet they remain utterly still.
  • "Flipping Samsara"

    • A figure walks on the sky, their feet lightly touching the clouds. Mountains, rivers, and cities hang upside down, yet nothing is disturbed. Is it the world that is inverted, or the mind that was misoriented all along?
  • "The Liberation of Reversal"

    • A Dzogchen master performs an aerial meditation, a flowing dance of free-form awareness, suspended between dimensions. Their form begins to dissolve into streaks of golden light, symbolizing self-liberation from habitual perception.
  • "Mirror of Emptiness"

    • A radiant figure hovers above a vast reflective void. As they turn upside down, the reflection remains unchanged, symbolizing the unchanging nature of awareness—whether seen from above, below, or beyond.
  • "Seeing Without a Seer"

    • A meditator’s body completely dissolves into a vortex of swirling opposites—light and dark, form and emptiness. Their face remains, but there is no front or back, only the boundless presence of direct knowing.
  • "Awake in the Turned World"

    • The final image shows the world itself inverted, but the enlightened one remains the same—untouched, smiling slightly. The ultimate realization: perspective is an illusion; reality is as it is.

This series explores the dissolution of conventional orientation, the non-dual nature of perception, and the absolute freedom of seeing beyond mind’s limitations—a true Inverted Dzogchen.
