“Seeds of Discovery’--a fable honoring the unique nature of each one of us--emerged in response to that ancient query, "Who are you?" and an assertion attributed to Asvaghosha: "The mind as phenomenon is grounded on the tathagata-garbha, what is called the storehouse of consciousness." From such elements, Curt developed his text, and out of that text, Margaret's monotypes of desert seeds brought the fable to vivid fruition. The flutter book structure seemed natural for the story's ethereal grounding, as did the wrapper protecting and containing the germ within.
