Σύνοψη: | This brief comparative study seeks to understand specific imagery and symbolism of divine love within the Carmelite Catholic and the Chaitanya Vaishnava traditions. Here I examine some of the nuanced aesthetic and theological dimensions of their greatest symbolic imagery of divine love: the crucifixion of Jesus and the Rāsa Maṇḍala of Krishna. The juxtaposition of the shift between the standardized depiction of divine love within each tradition and their later developed depictions demonstrates how each tradition's dramatic departure embodies a more personal, more distilled and intensified unique expression, while possibly even sharing a particular theological moment within the experiences of sacrifice, suffering, and salvation of divine love. |
