Love Source was created when Supreme Master Ching Hai was relaxing in the serene surroundings of beautiful lakes and mountains in Seattle Washington U.S. The flowing water in the center of the painting forms the lake of ever-flowing love and life force. The people in the cabins depend on this lake for its water of life just like all great civilizations were created within close vicinity of the water. The painting also hints of a perfect community whereby there is enough space between each cabin to offer privacy for its inhabitants yet close enough for them to be supportive of each other.
