Apsara Granny - Spirits of the Clouds

Apsaras (Sanskrit अप्सराः Apsarāḥ, f., Pali Accharā, Chinese Feitian or 天女, Tiānnǚ, Japanese Tennyo) are semi-human, semi-divine women in Hinduism and parts of Buddhism mythology who reside in the palace of the god Indra. Apsaras are also regarded as the “spirits” of clouds and waters, comparable in this respect to the nymphs of Greek and Roman mythology. (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apsara)

In a corner of the National Museum, there is a touching special exhibition. Started as a Mother’s Day project, the grandmothers have gained nationwide attention.
