I colored it. It never occurred to me to do so until the other day, and I like the result much better than the black and white.
Durga is a Hindu deity (click here for more info). Just being a yogi doesn’t mean I subscribe to all Indian philosophy, but that doesn’t mean I’m open to exploring it’s riches and making them mine.
I’ve painted Durga before, she made a huge impression on me. If we are veering into theological discussion here, then I’ll just say that the belief I do subscribe to is that most religions, and definitely the world religions, are talking much about the same thing. Call it God or Brahma, you go deeper into any religion’s philophy and you will find parallels to any other lasting, world though. So there you go. We can get lost in dogma and what we all think the other person should be doing. That never works. We have more in common than we know, and the differences can be awfully pretty.
