Library Events for Adults




Darshan [ https://sunnyvale.libcal.com/event/13414581 ]

The Hindu deity Durga worshipped by Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. India or Pakistan (1850-1900). Opaque watercolors on paper, Gift of George Hopper Fitch. Asian Art Museum, South Asian Art, B86D14.

ONLINE: Darshan: The Act of "Seeing" in Hindu Art *

*Monday, May 12, 7 to 8 p.m.*

This talk offers a chance to see some of the fabulous depictions of Hindu deities from the Asian Art Museum’s collection. In Hinduism, even representations of deities possess divinity, so the act of darshan (viewing an image of a deity) can be profound and auspicious for the believer. From the ten Avatars of Vishnu and the various forms of Shiva to a host of complex female deities, explore the storied pantheon of Hindu gods and goddesses and the powerful possibilities of darshan.

 

This one-hour online lecture by a Asian Art Museum community speaker docent is followed by a Q&A.

 

Please arrive on time to ensure your spot. Waitlisted registrants will receive the Zoom link a couple minutes after the program begins.
