The Tree of Life is a symbol of a fresh start in life, positive energy, good health and a brighter future. A tree grows old, yet it bears seeds that contain its very essence and this way the tree becomes immortal. It is a beautiful piece to display this symbology in a subtle and fluid way. From afar, it would add gorgeous texture to an indoor or outdoor space.
In Hinduism, The Tree of Life illustrates life in all its aspects - birth, growth, flowering and death. The cyclical nature of life and the living, breathing soul within it. In contrast, within Buddhism, Buddha reached enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, which this piece can also be a representation of. Other interpretations of the meaning behind The Tree of Life include personal development, uniqueness and beauty.
This sandstone sculpture is suitable for use as a garden ornament and as a wall sculpture for the home.
