Our mind is often too preoccupied with important issues. Many incidences of misplaced smartphones, wallets or keys can be blamed on our excessive attention to big problems. Not being able to find our smartphone can cause us to panic. But after wasting precious time in search for our belongings, we are often pleasantly surprised to find them in unexpected places. Before carrying on with our day, it might be helpful to recognize, after laughing at our own silliness, that behind destiny’s cruel little trick lies an important reminder, one as significant as our vision for the future: paying attention to what is in front of us is a crucial practice in our pursuit of greater endeavors.
Mongol (uran) zurag (US: /ˈmɒngɒl ˈdˈzuːrɑg/ lit., “Mongol painting”) is one of the most eminent, long-living art movements in Mongolian visual art history. Countless gifted artists continue to create in this genre that uniquely expresses the Mongolian nomadic philosophy through thin fluid colors, fine contours and delicate motifs applied on a cloth canvas to present a flattened and thorough composition. Whether it is the landscape of a countryside with a bird’s-eye perspective or the portrait of a figure in his or her milieu, Mongol zurag artworks tell a story through actions that seem to be taking place simultaneously in the past, present and future.
