Tree of Life
The Tree of Life is an important icon painted by the adivasi (tribal) community. With its branches reaching into the sky, and roots deep in the earth, it dwells in three worlds- a link between heaven, the earth, and the underworld, uniting above and below.
Trees are supposed to personify Gods in the Hinduism. Another form, the inverted Tree, represents spiritual growth like the Banyan tree with its roots above, and its branches below, is imperishable. |
