Dancing Shiva
I watch you dance ecstasy in your face
runner's legs connected to the stage by music
painter's hands high above your head voice riveted to the air
you dance this world into existence Shiva also ballet also flamenco also jazz
everything in between all sorrow all joy blood and bone
all there is that's real
Art by Abhishek Singh
Who is that which dances to the sound of silence...
This is Shiva dancing, a representation of the connection between spirit and the arts. The article is very brief and worth reading, about the beautiful symbolic Indian representation of Shiva and what the elements in it mean. The fan-like structure behind him is his hair flying out from him while he dances furiously. The person he’s dancing on is the Dwarf of Ignorance. He holds symbols of Fear and Fear Not in opposite hands, and I’m sure every artist understands why they are there. He would correspond to the King of Wands in a tarot deck.
