Padmadala Mandala : Song of the Petals
₹45,000.00
The lotus awakens to the first dewdrops of dawn, each petal an ode to the divine leela of Krishna, a sacred prayer in praise of the cosmic protector who descended age after age through the Dashavatara, as darkness rose and righteousness waned, restoring cosmic balance.
Within its petals bloom stories of a mother and her child, the laughter of childhood friendships, and the eternal triumph of righteousness over evil. The petals sway to a gentle tune as the gopikas dance in celebration of divine love, their devotion the music, their worship the rhythm. For at the very heart of this sacred bloom is Murali Manohara, whose love is the supreme blessing in which Radha and the gopikas rejoice.
Padmadala Mandala becomes life itself offered to the Divine through leela, each petal a hymn, all gathering into a song that echoes across time.
The iconography of Lakshmi Narayana in the Anantashayana pose is an essential element in traditional Pattachitra paintings dedicated to the life story of Lord Vishnu. Placed at the top of the composition, often marking the beginning of the narrative, it symbolises the artist’s humble prayer, seeking the Lord’s acceptance of the painting as an offering. This Pattachitra painting is a unique rendition in a dual-tone colour palette, incorporating the mandala-like composition, each episode a hymn from Bhagawata Purana and Krishnaleela
