Chandra Mandala: Artistic Ode to Moon

Chandra Mandala – Ode to Moon

“Of all things in nature, the moon is unique. It appears to wax and wane during the bright and dark fortnights. In fact, the lunar globe ever remains the same. In this, it is like the self of the man. While a man appears to pass through the stages of infancy, boyhood, youth, maturity and old age, his real self remains unchanged. All changes pertain only to the body and not to the self. Again, the moon only reflects the light of the sun but has no such of its own. So too, the soul or mind of a man is only a reflection of the light of awareness of the real self.” Avadhoota Dattatreya
