Sri Shiva's Third Eye- Vertical or Horizontal?
Namaste,
There is an ongoing discussion about the famous Vedic Mrityunjaya mantra,wherein Sri Shiva is saluted as the One with three eyes.
Usually,the orientation of the third eye of Sri Shiva is vertical but I have seen in fan art that some people have drawn it as horizontal i.e. parallel to the two eyes.
Do the scriptures tell us anything about the right orientation of the eye?
Some artists have depicted the eye as being partially open,some as closed and the rest as totally open.Which one among these is said to be appropriate?
He dances in the golden hall of Chidambaram, Let us worship His rosy anklet girt Feet.
