ArdhaNarishwar

2:40 PM
Here I have taken a completely different approach towards the concept of Ardhanarishwar. I have tried to depict the simultaneous existence of multiplicity (with multiple names and forms) at one end and formless, nameless absoluteness (Non-dual, Brahman) at the other extreme and duality in between. Further, I have tried to show how this cosmos of multiplicity arises out of One formless absolute and also finally merges back into it.
