Greetings,
I am pleased to announce that our new Samara coins will be going into production imminently. This thread will be used to provide product information, add/modify/confirm reservations, and provide you product updates until the moment your coin arrives to you!
1. Inspiration. In Buddhist faith, Samara is the cycle of death and rebirth to which life in the material world is bound. The contents of this cycle were said to have been crafted by Bhudda himself outside temples so simply, that even the common man could understand its meaning. This artwork is common place in the far east and has come to be known as "The Wheel of Life". The diagram suggests that the only escape from this seemingly endless cycle is through the enlightenment of man, which can only be achieved in the human realm. This is due to fact that members of the other realms are far too distracted with their current state; whether it be too happy, too power-hungry, too frustrated, to ever seek a oneness with the universe. They are trapped ad infinitum. I have extended this concept to symbolize how the invention of Bitcoin can enable the disruption of a socio-political Samsara to which we, or some of us, are currently bound. And how this disruption was manifested by a human being, or beings, that has come to be known only as Satoshi Nakamoto. It is through his works and that of his contemporaries that a fracture in the Samara is presented to each of us; and may we walk towards whatever brings us lasting peace of mind!
