Recent Works Recent Work: The Shiva Painting


Titled: Shiva, Painting, acrylic on canvas, by Gisele Beaupre 2004

Shiva is one of three major gods within the Hindu philosophy. The others 2 gods are Brahma and Vishnu. Shiv is the Lord of action, movement and the creation of time and space. Vishnu is the Lord of Creation, and is manifesting all that is visible and tangible, and is the force of gravity and that force which attracts the atoms together to create molecules and forms etc.. Shiv is the force of action and destruction allowing all forms to change, and creating the illusion of time and space. Brahma is the consciousness or witness self within this illusion created by Shiv and Vishnu.

I have actually witnessed this myself so I can vouch for the truth of this belief system. Psychically it is referred to as a light grid. Many mystical people that I know have also seen this inner light grid that is way, way beyond the "internet web". It is the inner web of consciousness that Brahma or the non-local self travels in to be anywhere, anytime.

On the light grid of the visible world, Brahma watches and permeates all as consciousness (Shaashwata - eternal, all permeating reality - the name given to me by Swami Shyam). Shiv and Vishnu interact as the manifest field. The larger, real, and final god is BRAHM, who is never incarnated but knows and watches all through Brahma; the Big eye and the little eye.

In the Bhagavad gita, Krishna tells his distressed student, Arjun, that the world is made up of the three gunas or forces of nature, but that he is beyond duality, and is forever established in the Self or Brahm. Verse: Chapter 2 verse 45 :

trai-gunya-vishaya veda
nistraigunyo bhav arjuna
nirdwandvo nitya-sattwa-stho
niryoga-kshema atmavan

trai-gunya--pertaining to the three modes of material nature; vishayah--on the subject matter; vedah--Vedic literatures; nistraigunyah--in a pure state of spiritual existence; bhava--be; arjuna--O Arjuna; nirdwandwah--free from the pains of opposites; nitya-sattva-sthah--ever remaining in sattva (goodness); niryoga-kshemah--free from (the thought of) acquisition and preservation; atma-wan--established in the self.

So Brahma is sattwic or an upward force, Shiv is the diagonal or active force and Vishnu is the downward or gravitational force. All three interact to create the illusion of having an experience. Otherwise according to Indian philosophy and quantum physicists, nothing is happening that is independent of the observer.
