In this painting, Mata Gujri ji and the Chote Sahibzade are saying their Antim Ardas, their final prayer, in the cold tower where they were imprisoned by the Mughal police, before execution.
This painting arose from a state of devotion and surrender. I wanted to capture that feeling at its highest level but I wasn’t able to show this sakhi along with it. However I still wanted to show an iconic feature of Guru Angad Dev ji and highlight that in this painting.
"One day while I was listening to the shabads and contemplating Guru Sahib's martyrdom, I saw Guru Sahib and the scene of his torture. My eyes teared up and I began crying. I saw a glimpse of Guru Sahib and how he saw his beloved Sajanra right next to him, and everywhere, and how he remained by His side until his departure. It was a very moving moment and I knew I had to paint it."
I was moved to tears by the love Guru Maharaj expressed for Akal Purakh Sahib
The painting grabs attention & reminds us to perform Responsible Actions and Meditation, & embody Ram within.
In this shabad, Guru Ramdas ji expresses the feeling of pain from being separated from Waheguru. One day while I was singing along, I experienced the emotions as described and I began painting.
