Collages

My original intention was to make a big collage of three different elements but I could not find a way to put them together so I decided to keep them separated.
I wanted to relate to the main characteristics of Indra/Vajrapani that I identify with.

The first piece is the image of Vajrapani and Kali together in their most 'ugly' but known image, both are said to be originated from Indra. It's called "Wisdom" because they are gods of wisdom, inner strength, and determination. Life is not about been pretty or nice, it's about discovering and being what we are about with no fear and no second guessings.

The second piece is about the process to get to our truth: "Contemplation" it has a quote from Mark Twain that I relate to very deeply. Contemplation can happen anywhere, psychologist say that it can happen even when we sleep. That image has a lot of power: the reflection of the bed and the stillness of the water talk about the need to bound, discover and acknowledge one self and the exciting possibilities it can bring to all.

The third piece I wanted to find a picture of a busy street and a person who recieves Light that reflects inside and outside, instead I used the words and images of things we may dream or experience in our everyday life. It's called "Action" and it relates to the 'doing' part of our lives.
It shows the image of Indra in his prime, before he got cursed and relegated to the corners of heaven, Indra was known for been the hero that slain the dragon who stole the waters and cows of prosperity; the blue sky that we may not pay attention to but shows up every day and is part of our way to measure time, the lotus in the damp which is what we try to do sometimes: the best in the middle of the worst, and a couple that runs free and happy which implies communication, understanding and work...which at the same time bring bliss, growth and more energy to move forward.
