In the context of what took place this week in Washington, I couldn't resist putting this photo up, which I took in India. The Nataraja is the divine Lord of the dance, arts and enlightenment and it is depicted trampling on the dwarf demon of ignorance, Apasmara. Nataraja is not killing Apasmara because you just can't kill ignorance, but you can defeat it and trample on it with wisdom and knowledge. I hope you like it.

I like the photo, but importantly in this day and age, I appreciate your explanation and its relevance to where society seems to be.
