Theme: UNALOME

Unalome is a symbol that represents the path to enlightenment. Its spirals, lines, and dots are a concoction of life itself. The twists and turns represent the trials and tribulations that one inevitably finds oneself in throughout the journey of life. The straight lines depict the moments of peace and harmony, with the self and beyond, as one reaches ‘Nirvana.’ The dots at the end indicate ultimate enlightenment followed by death when the body, mind, and soul become one with the creation
