EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Bodhisattva's Tusks" an illustration from the renowned book "Myths of the Hindus and Buddhists" by Sister Nivedita and Ananda Coomaraswamy. Published in 1913, this first edition lithograph is a testament to the timeless beauty and significance of Hindu and Buddhist mythology. In this vibrant artwork, created by Abanindranath Tagore, we are transported into a world of enlightenment and spiritual awakening. The central figure, a Bodhisattva, embodies the essence of heroism with his serene expression and meditative pose. His enlightened existence radiates wisdom as he delves deep into meditation. What makes this illustration truly unique is the depiction of tusks emerging from either side of the Bodhisattva's mouth. These symbolic tusks represent the tusk of wisdom that pierces through ignorance, leading one towards enlightenment. They serve as a powerful reminder that true knowledge can overcome all obstacles on our path to self-realization. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we cannot help but be drawn into its tranquil aura. It invites us to embark on our own journey towards inner peace and understanding. Through meditation and contemplation like that depicted here, we too can aspire to reach higher states of consciousness. This remarkable print captures not only artistic brilliance but also serves as a visual representation of profound philosophical concepts found within Buddhism. It stands as a testament to humanity's eternal quest for spiritual growth and enlightenment.
