QotD: Nataraja
Oct. 21st, 2015 09:30 pmWhen Shiva the Great Yogin chooses
to become the Lord of the Dance, Nataraja,
the universe appears as Consciousness
in its most ecstatic forms:
as art and play, as knowledge and beauty,
as the very embodiment of awareness
in the form of the Self.
—From Clothed in Consciousness:
Nataraja in the Tantric Tradition
