aṃ

This is simply a variety Siddhaṃ. It looks like it was either done with a Chinese Calligraphy brush or is designed to look that way. Note that even contemporary Siddhaṃ calligraphy can vary quite widely in style.

I'm studying an alpha chart of Sanskrit in what I believe to be the Siddham Script. The first letter box (a) has a picture of what looks like a pomegranate.I replied:
Does "pomegranate" translate into a word that starts with the letter"a" in Sanskrit? Something like "anara"?
