"The Hindu deities Shiva and Shakti constitute this hermaphroditic
Ardhnarishwara deity that is half male, half female.
Ardhnarishwara shows that truth is not only available from either
the male or the female side.
Truth needs both approaches, ratio and intuition, thought
and emotion,
sun and moon, introspection and action.
Shiva is Male, Solar, Rational
Shakti
is Female, Lunar, Emotional
