A rare depiction of the Shiva Parivar on a chariot. Lord Shiva normally does not take a ride other than Nandi, so this is an artists depiction, maybe infused with the type of Gita Updesh of Sri Krishna, in which the horses and chariot are compared to mind and thoughts and we have to harness those meditatively into ॐ Aumkar , which is our essential Nature. Perhaps Shivji is giving the family that holy lesson.
Durga's lion seems to have hitched himself to the wagon of great learning! . Indeed a very nice symbolism, even if it is not from the known mythology. such innovative pictures can add to the learnings from our great Rishis and seers: learning is a continuous process,and the essence of Shivji flows eternally on. Who can say of His leela! ..Aum Namah Shivaya!
