Godavari Dutta's one of the finest paintings, Trishula was also exhibited at the museum.
So it is said that the Trishula helps to make us rich- at a spiritual level.
Mahalasa has four hands, carrying a Trishula, a sword, a severed head, and a drinking bowl.
Lord Shiva's Trishula is supposed to destroy- the
physical world- attachment to gross, the illusionary world which seems so real;
There is trimurti, trinetra, Trishula, trikala- all these things are an evolution of ideas
from the fundamental experience of human life.
The Trishula also has the capacity to remove our many different
negative qualities which inhibit us from being one with Spirit.
If you notice,
Lord Shiva is usually depicted holding the handle of the Trishula, as he is beyond all three gunas.
When looked upon as a weapon of Shiva, the Trishula is said to destroy the three worlds: the physical world, the
world of the forefathers(representing culture drawn from the past) and the world of the mind(representing the processes of sensing and acting).
