Default Miksang

I did a search for Miksang on this forum and no joy
Wikipedia for Miksang

is anybody else here doing it? Its a valid technique and probably more prevalent than at first sight.

My small but discerning Miksang set on Flickr

Font of knowledge on all that is Miksang

Very interesting - photography takes on philosophy. Milsang seems to drive the photographer to photograph from different points of view and to leave the expected perception behind. Do I understand it correctly? I'm sure there's more to it though! LOL!!

I enjoyed looking at everyone's gallery - lot's of minimalistic and abstract images.

I'm new to DPS and just searched for Miksang on this forum -- glad there are some others here. Mike, I enjoyed your Miksang set on Flickr. I took a Miksang level 1 class a few years ago, then got distracted from it by a new puppy (Tenzin) who hated the camera and needed lots of time with mom. I'm getting back into photography now that he's settled down a bit, and am longing to take another Miksang class. I loved the way it opened me up to simply seeing, and the way that had such an impact on the overall quality of my "ordinary" photos.

The rest of us call it "abstract" photography
