“Such a clever design which is loaded with symbolism. One of my favourite tops.” Steve.B.
Can you see the face of Buddha within the snowy peak? ‘Go Beyond Beyond’ is inspired by the Heart Sutra – one of the most important Buddhist teachings which explores the philosophical concept of emptiness. Essentially how we can free our Self if we shift our consciousness from how we feel things ‘should’ be to the wonder of life ‘as it is’.
Our unique design has been hand screen printed onto ethically sourced premium, organic cotton that is vegan friendly.

The dramatic artwork for ‘Go Beyond Beyond’ captures the rugged terrain and snowy peaks of a mountain landscape, but with a twist. For layered in the snow is the face of Buddha. Which did you see first?!
The phrase Go Beyond Beyond is inspired by the Prajna Paramita mantra which closes the Buddhist Heart Sutra, or the Heart of the Great Wisdom Sutra. The mantra is stated: gate, gate, paragate, parasamgate, bodhi svaha. Broadly ‘Prajna’ means wisdom while ‘Paramita’ means a crossing over, or going beyond. Therefore a loose translation of the mantra is ‘gone, gone, gone beyond, gone utterly beyond, Enlightenment hail’.
The mountain imagery of the Go Beyond Beyond invites you to climb high into landscapes of emptiness. The Heart Sutra is also about the realisation that all things are essentially empty, and within that emptiness lies liberation. Essentially it points us to let go of our preconceived notions, opinions and attachments of how things ‘should’ be and be open the wonder of life ‘as it is’.
This T-shirt should be washed inside out on a cool cycle. Organic cotton should never see the inside of your tumble dryer, air drying is best! Never iron directly onto the hand screen printed graphics – iron the garment inside out or use a clean cloth as a barrier.

We love our Earthmonk gear – we bought this tee and two others – all fit perfectly and is of such good quality that it washes and wears without losing shape. Unique and not on the high street.
