As I continue to research the wonderful world of Hindu, I uncover more beauty, stunning symbolism, truth and life lessons. I have been learning about Lakshmi, Ganesha and Saraswati - thats the colourful peeps above but have uncovered some beautiful Hindu quotes, text and learnings as well. I am obsessed with words and writing as much as I am fashion - its the story telling element that words provide and the imagery, feelings and ideas they can ignite in our imagination. Fashion to me is story telling too and I think thats the core reason I feel so connected to this stylish medium..the ability to do both - tell a story and create through style is my dream job which is why I created Love Chile! Style that speaks!
Back to wonderful words....This Hindu quote is my favourite I have found so far.
'Know you are one
Pure awareness
With the fire of this conviction
Burn down the forest of ignorance
Free yourself from sorrow
And be happy'
Ashtavakra Gita 1:9
'With the fire of this conviction burn down the forest of ignorance' - how beautiful is that! Such stunning symbolism.
Pretty smart those Hindu's huh!
