Contrasting bodies appear from a warm, red ocean, swirling, folding, unfolding. Each one with something unique to offer, they complement each other, expressing and inspiring distinct emotions and ideas, while reflecting the essence of life itself: a center of self and of all visions.
Māyā is a word with uncertain etymology and multiple meanings, as our lives are.
We are physical,spiritual and spiritual essences. We are part of an integral life oneness, while being unique, seeking and developing exceptional abilities and ideas. Possibly from the root Mā, nuance to measure, Maya represents both the cosmic force, the illusion, the appearance, where things are not what they seem. Maya is transcendental, universal and individual. The Cosmic Self, the Power of Self, where everyone sees the same world, perceived and expressed according to their own self-being. And the Power of Self Absorption, where the individual forgets to be part of a oneness.
