「四和合」描述了四個在森林中互相合作、共生的好朋友，是不丹傳統文化常見的主題、也展現了不丹社會結構組成的價值觀。金寶使用精心設計的圖像符號取代了嚴肅性的議題，以童趣可愛的卡通動物樣貌呈現，傳達出輕鬆俏皮的感覺。佛像的冥想坐姿中所包含的四和合是為了傳達內在和諧、並與自我合而為一的概念，金寶試圖藉由創作鼓勵現代忙碌社會的人們培養輕鬆愉快的心情，藉此達到身心和諧。

The Four Harmonious Friends are a common motif found in Bhutan, and informs the values that keep the social fabric intact. The elaborate symbols project seriousness, so the animals themselves are rendered in a childlike manner in juxtaposition, to convey lightheartedness and playfulness. The animals contained within the meditative pose is to convey the idea of inner harmony, being at one with oneself, and an encouragement to cultivate lightheartedness.
