In the latest How to Train a Happy Mind podcast episode, I share powerful lessons about generosity I’ve learned from a host of people in my life including my Buddhist teachers, my college girlfriend, and, to start off, my mother (here in per punk rock 80s phase) www.skepticspath.org/podcast/what...

I am leading a series of three daylong retreats at Land of Medicine Buddha in Santa Cruz on all the topics from the How to Train a Happy Mind book. The first one is Sunday, February 23 11am-5pm, and includes a delicious vegetarian lunch. Sign up here: landofmedicinebuddha.org/retreat-guru...

Soon, I wanted to step away from the computer to work with more natural materials, and I began to draw the grids with India ink on clay boards. I'd first mark out the grid in pencil, then overlay in ink on a natural porous material pulled from riverbeds.

I started with Shakyamuni Buddha (the historical Buddha) whose grid is entirely symmetrical, expanding and aligning his grid into a rectangular composition.

When I started the Hidden Geometries series in 2023, I began by overlaying the traditional grids of Tibetan Buddhist thangka paintings atop deity line drawings, making decisions as to how the grids could become compelling abstract compositions on their own. www.snibbe.com/art/hidden-g...

For the past two years, I’ve worked on Hidden Geometries, a series inspired by the geometry of Tibetan thangka paintings. Combining digital art, prints, video, and paintings with Himalayan pigments, it reflects a meditator’s inner experience of deities as pure light. (Protector of the World, 2023)
