William Blake Albion Dance (1799)

"Lambda Λ: Sun to Earth" Zahlenlehre der Natur (1794)

George William Russell (A.E.) Bellerophon on Pegasus (1911)

	The Awakened State Ramana Maharshi declared "The sage abides in pure consciousness, essence of waking, dream, & deep sleep." Searched through 700 pages of Roob's Alchemy & Mysticism for images of these three states. "Sunrise" in Splendour Solis is a good representation for waking. "Jacob's Ladder" in Muter Liber is fitting symbol for dream state, and Goethe's "Colour Wheel" of black circle is perfect for deep sleep. For awakened state, need painting by artist who are enlightened— Blake's Albion Dance is illumined "Awake! awake O sleeper... wake! expand!... Ever expanding in God" writes Blake in Jerusalem (1804). A.E.'s Bellerophon on Pegasus shows Christ-like figure on winged horse— the vision of an Irish poet-sage. I chose "Lambda Λ from Sun to Earth" to represent the "awakened state" as sun rays forming triangle shown is the 10th triangular number, same as Platonic Λ, "World Soul" sum of 55, known to awakened sages.             Peter Y.
