Vajra Brush by Alex Grey

The Vajra Brush by Alex Grey is a work that depicts a visionary explanation for the sprirtual aspect of our being as it is being manifest through our kundalini awakening. This is expressed through his art which is the vehicle that is realized through the painter’s brush. The basic symbol represented in this piece is a caduceus which is more commonly know as the symbol used in modern medicine which is the intertwined snakes with wings on a staff, the meaning of this is what is known as kundalini rising. Often depicted in eastern religions like Hinduism as intertwined sepents that lay dorment at the base of the spine, through proper cultivation they are activated to rise through the chakras and thus cause a spiritual awakening within the individual having the transformation. This concept also dates back to Hermes from ancient Greece who carried a caduceus as well as Dionysus who carried a thysus which is a staff intertwined with ivy with a pinecone at the top. The pinecone represents the pineal gland (the word pineal stems from the word pineus for pinecone) which in this depiction is represented as a third eye which also corresponds to this reference in Hinduism.
