The Lingnan Penjing Academy of Australia was established with the sole
intention of expanding the mind of the artist and to enlighten the soul
to an avenue of thought that life opens its secrets to us.
Bridging the gap between Chinese and Western
thought, the Lingnan Penjing Academy deems it a privilege
to share the
inner beauty of an ancient art form, Chinese penjing. Through the
teachings of the Academy, the gap between these two ways of thinking no
longer exists. Rather, they become one.
Sifu Philippe Tot invites you to take a
journey of spiritual awareness and self expression, to fine tune your
artistic ability through the ancient teachings of one of the oldest
civilisations in history. This is the first authentic Lingnan-style
Penjing Academy established in Australia. Opened to the public in June 2009,
eight-week courses of various levels are now being taught just 10 minutes from Syney's CBD, covering
principles in theory, practical and philosophy. Students will be
awarded with accredited certificates upon completion of courses.
"Practicing self-refinement is the first
priority,
stopping craving,
forgetting emotions,
removing entanglements.
When all attachments to the senses is cut off,
there is a single field of elixir, completely clean and clear..."
- Liu l-ming
