This rather early painting (1953) of an Indian scene by Frithjof Schuon features three chiefs smoking the sacred pipe in the foreground with, behind them, a shield on a tripod, a buffalo skull, warriors on horseback, and a double rainbow. The tipi in the center is dominated by an image of a sacred thunderbird.
To Have a Center: A New Translation with Selected Letters
In this new edition of his powerfully original work, Schuon covers an array of metaphysical, cosmological, and anthropological subjects.
