Ilavrta is always described as a place at the center of the world, but what struck me is how often we externalize “center” as geography instead of consciousness. Maybe the myth isn’t pointing to a hidden landmass but to the axis inside perception itself.
If Siva abides where polarity dissolves, then the real question isn’t where that realm exists — it’s what in us still insists on standing outside it.
Sometimes sacred cartography reads like psychology written in mountain ranges.
