Gajdant: Lord Ganesha, The Elephant Teeth Lord
$37
This artifact done on Arecanut Leaf is an artistic representation of Lord Ganesha. He is also know as Ekadanta and there is an interesting tale to it. It is a known fact the Indian epic Mahabharata is recited by mahamuni Veda Vyas. Lord Ganesha was appointed to write down the epic as Vyasa recited it. The lord agreed to do this on one condition that the muni would not stop reciting until it is done. Veda Vyas now put forth a condition that Ganesha should understand every verse before writing it down. It is said that it took them 3 continous years of saying and understanding to complete the epic. In this span, Lord Ganesha's pen once broke down. Staying true to his word, the lord broke one of his tusks into half and continued writing. Such is the commitent of Lord Ganesha to his work.

Viswamukha: Lord Ganesha, The Master of the Universe
$37
In Hindu tradition, it is often believed that anything that can be perceived by the senses can be controlled. With our five senses, we perceive the world around us. But celestial beings, in all the infinite senses, are able to perceive so much more. For instance, we see seven colours, but it is now known that light waves exist beyond the spectrum of what we can see with our eyes. Likewise, a God with his face turned towards the universe (Viswamukha) can see everything, and therefore has mastery over everything- every being and every atom in the universe. In this splendid arecanut creation, the artian gives form to this very idea.

Yogadhipa: The Lord of Meditation
$37
Meditation is nothing but the art of centering the mind. In today's times, it is definitely an art, seeing as so many distractions surround us each step of the way. This is why ancient ascetics recommended that we focus on one object, be it the 'aum' sound, our breath, a source of light or even an idol. As the remover of obstacles, Lord Ganesha is an important motif in meditation. Chanting his name offers a sense of peace, while also allowing us to maintain our meditative practice. As the Lord of meditation, he reigns supreme in this Arecanut Leaf painting. These delicate paintings are a testament to the artist's skill and patience in creating a masterpiece on seemingly everyday objects.
