Bindu

Bindu

A circular symbol resembling and implying a point or a dot. It has several meanings in Indian philosophy: while the Upanishads suggest it as a marker of duality, in Tantra, it is seen as the source of consciousness. It is typically associated with Tantric ideals and is best exemplified in Modernist Neo-Tantric art, notably the paintings of SH Raza.
