Soul Liberated

By dedicating every living moment to the soul, one can escape reincarnation and rise to a supreme state of ever-lasting bliss and tranquility (Nirvana).
The Aum (Om) symbol is the most prominent feature of this work. In Jainism, it represents the five supreme souls: Arihant, Ashariri (Siddha), Ächärya, Upädhyäya and Muni (Sädhu) A+A+A+U+M which equals Aum. The liberated soul, represented above the crescent line has risen to the supreme state. The yellow arrow pointing upwards indicates the soul’s journey from the material world to the liberated world. The cool green and yellow colors express the beauty of the blissful and tranquil state of the soul. This is the final painting of the trilogy representing the soul’s journey.
