Divine Wisdom

Detail from Wisdom and Strength by Paolo Veronese (1528-1588)




















Divine wisdom is accessible through the Sahasrara Chakra at the crown of the head.
The Renaissance painter Paolo Veronese has depicted Divine Wisdom as a goddess with an illumined sahasrara.

She appears in the Bible, in the book of Proverbs 8:22-31, where She is described as taking part in the Creation, being present with God before it took place. She is therefore not a created being, but an aspect of God.
