The word bindu dates back to the hymn of creation in the Rigveda. Bindu is considered the point at which creation begins by virtue of unity. It is also described as “the sacred symbol of the cosmos in its unmanifested state.”
Yantra (Sanskrit, literally meaning “machine, contraption”) is a mystical diagram, mainly from the Tantric traditions of the Indian religions.
In Kundalini meditation, which is the inspiration for Jamie Brunson’s paintings, orange symbolizes radiating happiness, joy, warmth, and vibrancy. It signifies physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual strength, balance, vitality, and good health.
