Description
According to the Tattvic philosophy, in the beginning, there was just emptiness. The first vibration was the sound of OM.
From this vibration Akasha/space was born. There was motion in space and Vayu/Air was born. From the heat of these vibrations, Agni/Fire was born. Fire cooled and became Jal/Water. Water solidified and became Prithvi/Earth. Together Space, Air, Fire, Water and Earth make up the Panch Tattvas (Five Elements).
"Creation" has the colors of the Panch Tattvas: black for Space, blue for Air, red for Fire, white/grey for Water and yellow for Earth. I used my brushstrokes to show the flow of energy and vibrations caused by that first sound of "OM."
