Week 13 Reading Diary: Hindu Calendar Art

Still reading the Hindu Calendar Art that comes from Devdutt Pattanaik's Seven Secret Hindu Calendar Art.  Today I focused on Part B, which is chapters three and four.  Chapter 3 goes overs Ardhanari's Secret where chapter four goes over Shiva's Secret Part 1 and 2.

I learned that Narayan's awakening is a moment of celebration.  It makes the creation of the world just as out world comes into being when we awaken and become aware of our world. Angels, Visualised as flying women, shower flowers.  From an academic point of view, it is interesting to keep in mind that the notion of flying heraldic angels came to India only after exposure to European culture in the sixtieth century.
