Your deities?

[skydog]

I am deity

deities are great

sungazing makes you high in the sky

surrendering to the power of the third eye

past life memory healing clears trauma lower chakra

love trees

tree spirits

look like from princess mononoke

I love animal spirits too

my painting says I evoke, bats, snake and vulture

bat is meant to be spirit for extreme self improvement

leaves you if your lazy

kundalini is it a spacebeing

I dont know apparantely

looks like shiva

blue beings in my art

like yeh

yeh

Well, if I ever feel the need to have a deity I am sure it will be Apathea. She doesn't care if anyone worships her or not.

No deities , they could only make the world chaotic and unknowable.

Then I say that your deity is in fact a donut...I am sorry Stosh, you are going to become a donut now. All bow to the great and mighty Stosh donut!

[Jainarayan]

Just not a Krispy Kreme. I simply don't see the attraction in fried air.

Ganesha possibly
Saraswati definitely
Tara definitely
Lakshmi possibly
Parvati not a Buddha, but needs to be placated when worshipping Saraswati
Garuda definitely
Ekajati definitely

Hayagriva definitely

I would like a psychiatric assessment of this ... they can tell a lot from ink blots I hear.

I win with Nehab-kau (uniter of kas) who as a snake feeds the eye of horus to a man with a duck on his head. they both have erections. beat that.

Very cool. I think Ganesha is particularly popular in Japan. I thought I read that somewhere. In Tibetan Buddhism Hayagriva takes on a wrathful character instead of his avatar of Vishnu.

That's no creditable excuse.

In addition to this list, from the Buddhist POV, you can give props to all sorts of deities such as Vishnu and Shiva.

 

You just don't take refuge in Vishnu and Shiva.

Confusing threads?

 

Please! These are the eternal questions ... they are beyond thread restrictions ...

[Stosh]

That's no creditable excuse.

The vigor of my people is no excuse for my attitude?

[Stosh]

If there is no emotional 'message' detectable by the audience, it would be fair to say its not art, whether its appealing to look at or not.

Nope. You must bear full responsibility. Hehehe.

Indian culture spread all over Asia.

 

In Japanese Zen, they even know about Andhra Pradesh, the birthplace of Mahayana.

The first time I saw Bo Derek I thought that was art personified.

[Stosh]

Surgical and female arts, combined into a deity.

:)the bolero a prayer.

I just finished reading American Gods by Neil Gaiman - fantastic book.

I couldn't put it down. Highly recommended if you like fiction and mythology.

 

As far as personal deities, there's just li'l ole me.

You'd make a serviceable deity
