The last level of our consciousness is the knowledge of absolute reality or enlightenment. The combination of the square and the circle symbolizes the unity of the earth and the sky, that is, of the soul and the body. It represents the bridge between the material and spiritual world. The wings only highlight the aspiration for the elevation for the spiritual. They are an image of the balance of the two halves, a confluent of the dualistic unity out of which all life comes from. The sphere — on the pedestal in the center of the piece, the most perfect, most universal of all forms, and of importance for understanding of the act of creation is the essential form from which everything else was created in the beginning. It is the most important symbol for completeness, integrity and the limitless center of the cosmos.
