3rd Illustration, 'Love people, not pleasure'

'Love People, Not Pleasure'

How Buddhism portrays this completely.

Final piece of 3 for this week... the title was 'Love People, Not Pleasure' I chose this image as Buddhism to most is not about wanting, they do not need possessions to be happy, they want to fulfil enlightenment, and that is true happiness. The word Buddha means "awakened one" or "the enlightened one". "Buddha" is also used as a title for the first awakened being in a Yuga era. In most Buddhist traditions, Siddhartha Gautama (Shakyamuni) is regarded as the Supreme Buddha.

The Tree Poisons.

Moha, or Ignorance
Dvesha, Hate
Lobha, Greed

Buddhism may be about enlightenment, but also the three poisons. These 3 things, if you poses them, will stop you fulfilling true happiness. If you find yourself in one, it will usually link you to the other two.

2nd Illustration, A simulated world.

'Cosmic rays offer clue our universe could be a computer simulation'

Is our world real, or are we all just playing along? This is an Illuminating illustration. Im trying to portray the idea that we are all watching, thinking our own lives instead of living them. Are we in a computer program running itself ? or is there someone writing our lives for us ? Or, are we actually just real, but sitting around waiting for something bigger? This is a really interesting way of thinking, and of course it would be interesting to know whether we're real or just codes? But why worry about that? So many questions, so little time.

1st Illustration, Dolls/Science

Create an Illustration to show how young girls toys
 influence their education and careers.

Dolls and bows blocking out science and engineering opportunities. This is a decorative illustration. I'm trying to show the idea that girls as children are less likely to choose to go into a science/engineering degree or job due to the fact that they are not given the opportunity to understand the idea at a young age. Children take on knowledge and inspiration from such a young age, why should their sex mean they're less likely to do something.
