What is the BINDU?
In Sanskrit, Bindu means the origin point of the universe — representing absolute, infinite, and unmanifested potential. In shared terms, it might best be described as the point of connection to God: at once the beginning of creation, a ray of light, a spark of inspiration, and a drop of water in an ocean of divine grace.
It is from that place that the messages shared in theBINDU originate — from listening, asking for guidance, and recognizing God as the point of unity containing infinite dimensions without being contained or singularly defined. (No matter how you define God.)
Taoist symbolism offers a glimpse into how I approach connection to higher wisdom: the uncarved block, the empty space at the center of the Taoist circle. I listen to the silence and the incomplete, humbly aware that I do not have all the answers before me.

Many traditions depict the Bindu as a point of light — the center of awareness, the inner circle containing the whole of the universe, and sometimes, paradoxically, representing emptiness.
The theBINDU logo, however, begins with a darker circle of silence — a pool of knowing and unmanifested growth — which then expands outward into greater awareness and light. You are invited to journey inward first, to emerge transformed: moving from inner truth to outer expression, from stillness to shared consciousness.

Since before recorded time, the awareness of Source — a greater force beyond ourselves — has resonated with people from every corner of the world. This understanding predates organized faiths: including Hinduism, Jewish mysticism (Kabbalah), Christianity, Taoism, Buddhism, and countless indigenous and tribal traditions.
It is the primordial point from which the world — and all consciousness — unfolds.
Here is how different paths have described and defined this singular point of origin:
