samsara

SAMSARA
cycle of reincarnation or rebirth
The karmic balance at the time of death is inherited via the state at which a person is reborn. Through an undetermined amount of lives one can spiral upwards to become one of the gods. As a deity, one exercises divine powers until the good merit is exhausted. If one lives in evil ways, one is reborn as an animal.[
Saṃsāra is described as mundane existence, full of suffering and misery and hence is considered undesirable and worth renunciation. The Saṃsāra is without any beginning and the soul finds itself in bondage with its karma since the beginingless time. Moksa is the only liberation from saṃsāra.


Mother/giver of life…baking the bread…birth

Death – coffin of man, death is father sort of, spirit of destruction

Rebirth…girls turn to dust/flour…mother makes more bread → life


Turning of the bowl…the cycle …like folding of the bread

Sound of like a water wheel throughout the piece

What my images say:

Boy: tortured then peaceful…death…managing his sins
Girl: objectification of women…girl w/ pail on her head…kneeling down, grasping the floor
Mother: mother goddess giver of life, but also fate
Mother and father are dual forces (life and destruction)
