Sri Ram Art Inspiration
Rama is revered for his unending compassion, courage, and devotion to divine values & duties. The spirit of Rama is a special blessing during challenging times. Sri Ram guides us to do the right thing, take the highest road, and stand up for ourselves, so that we can achieve our souls' birthright. Lord Rama encourages us to face our fears and shine our light on the shadows. The wisdom and courage of Rama grants us the strength to hold onto truthfulness, aligning us with our highest purpose.
The power of Sri Ram's vibration is embedded in each drawing. I use a mystical approach to create these art pieces. Inspired by sadhana or meditation practice, I conceive the images in the after effect poise of my daily kriya practice. I then start drawing after chanting a Rama mantra. While creating, I usually listen to a divine rendition of the Sri-Valamiki-Ramayana. Since the drawings also contain the name of Rama in English or Sanskrit, the whole process is imbued with the prayerful, devotional repetition of Sri Ram's name. This meditative art raises the vibration of a home with the energy of Lord Rama, especially when added to a personal altar.
May these sacred images inspire you to align your life with the your soul's highest good, so that your individual excellence may benefit the whole of humanity. For as we each live authentically, truthfully, and courageously, our communities heal and grow stronger. And so it shall be...
