The OM (AUM) Symbol Breakdown


The Sanskrit word - AUM (OM) is everything. It is the source. It is the vibration & consciousness of the entire universe.



1) The Conscious or Waking State [JAGRAT] :
The down and the larger curve represents the waking state. It is the most common state of human consciousness. This state experiences the world through the five senses.

2) Dream State [SWAPNA] :
The curve that lies between the deep sleep and the waking state is called dream state. In this state the dreamer experiences a world behind the closed eyes.

3) The Unconscious or Deep Sleep State [SUSUPTI] :
The top curve indicates the state of deep sleep. It is a state where sleeper is desiring nothing and having no dreams.

4) The Absolute State [TURIYA] :
The dot signifies the fourth state of consciousness. This quite, peaceful and blissful state is the ultimate aim of all spiritual activity.

5) World of Illusion [MAYA] :
This state is what gets in the way of spiritual development. This semi-circle doesn't touch the dot, means the highest  state of consciousness is not affected by maya or the Illusion.

Mixed Media art- Rustic effect

Hi all ,

I am back again with my one more mixed media project. I have worked on a circular Cardborad.

1. Cover the complete surface with White gesso 
2. Using Modelling /texture paste and stencil give some effect. let it dry
3. I have used little birdie alcohol splash -Frosted pool . Let the surface dry completely.
4. Allign all the elements the way you want it to be.
5. After all elements are glued cover it with White gesso.
6. Once its dried, spary the same alcohol splash and then i have used Brown Acrylic paint to give brownish effect (you can use similar color splash, if you have).
7. Using Little birdie's Tinted Metallic color  and  Fabrica gold powder paint give some rustic effect. 
8. Add some sentiments of your choice and here you are done.!!
