Description
Mahabhuta - Sanskrit for 'Great Elements.' Commissioned for the Mahabhuta Yoga Festival, this piece commemorates the Year of the Dragon and the powers of nature that sculpt our world, represented by the Chinese Dragon archetype. In the Yogic tradition, each of the four lower chakras represents one of the four classical elements. Through dedicated personal practice, the dragon or serpent power rises through the chakras, purifying their elements and opening the path to Akashic realms of consciousness. May this mythos inspire us to heal those same elements in the macrocosm of our natural world, that we may bask upon the Heavenly Earth.
