"Krishna, in his eternal dance, is surrounded by flames and holds in his hand the flame that ignited the universe as well as the flame that devours all"
Flame: F L A M E
When I Googled a word called "flame". My search took me to the Wikipedia which defines the term flame as, "A flame is the visible (light-emitting) part of a fire".
F could be Fire
L could be Light
A could be Appearance
E could be Emission
Now if I want to define the flame, I would define it as- An element of fire which results into light of appearance after emission by burning itself.
May be, My first definition which I created in less than 25 seconds are wrong. But, to associate something with flame I need first to understand what the flame is.
By comparing now, definition of flame by me and by the Wikipedia- it results almost the same. Despite there might be some differences.
Anyways, What could be the flame? A burning image which is visible to our eyes. This image shows that you are alive. The image is not of others but yours and only yours. For example- Look yourself in the mirror. When you look at the mirror, what do you see? Your image. Your reflection. The visible part of you. This visible part of you is what the flame is. The visible part of the light. The light which is visible is flame. Similarly, in our lives flame is the visible part- a energy which drives us forward, backward, pauses or plays us in the way we want it to play.
Imagine you have mirror in your room. Will you look at mirror for 24 hours? Surely not, you will look at mirror only when you will desire. Similarly, when you have some desires, some passion, some burning ego inside you which you need to look at then you think of it and look at that "flame". This result not into giving you what you desire but it might just result into your inner reflection and beauty.
Coming to the quoted text in the first couple of lines of this comment, Krishna is surrounded by flame and he is also carrying a flame. May be he is did so, to prove that- Flame will give the reflection of what the world is all about.
One hand carries the flame which ignited universe and may be other hand carries flame which will devours everything. This might be because whatever we do- has two perspectives of view.
A flame has two living entity. One contains a lady and also, a gentlemen. The women perspective is to view a universe as a single. And Gentlemen perspective is to view the universe as different entity. (May be)
It could also be, A flame has two perspectives- One which admires and always agrees with whatever decision we make in our lives. Another which disagrees with whatever decision we make in our lives.
Now when we disagree with the decisions we make then it is because of the flame which devours and when we agree with whatever decision we make it might be just because of the flame which ignites.
Well- Let me stop "my burning flame" for this comment. NOW.
