If you had to illustrate Brahman what entities or scene would you use to represent it?

Question

In other words. How would you( creatively) illustrate Brahman on a peice of paper? :)

hmm..I was thinking of getting a tattoo that has the meaning and understanding of brahman, but not the word, just what it represents. The ultimate reality

Answer 1

I'd draw a picture of a big Brahma Bull..hopefully mounting up on a cow of his own choice.

Answer 2

'Light'...

It is simply impossible to illustrate what Brahman is like in our 'lowly' human ways... as the beauty and light of Brahman is beyond any of our normal ability to illustrate in its true form.

The light and form of Brahman expands infinitely...

Okay, if you insist, try these links... maybe you might get some ideas:

The symbolism of the Brahman is represented in yantras. You might find that 'Aum' is most suitable for representing Brahman. You might also find that the Shree Yantra is the BEST representative of the Brahman:

Hope this helps and good luck!

Answer 3

Using charcoal i would trace an outline of a circle. I would then take a rubbing from an orange to fill it to represent the complexity and nature of what is Brahman.

Answer 4

I don't know how creative you will think this, but I'd put two or three nicely robed and turbaned Indian gentleman in a marble courtyard resembling the Taj Mahal, speaking quietly together.

The Brahman are the highest caste, are they not?

Answer 5

Leave it blank. Brahman is Nothing.
