What makes this
piece special.
Natural materials. Sacred symbolism. A considered addition to your home.
Faithful to the dhyāna
The painting follows the dhyāna — the red lotus, boon-giving hand and jewelled crown.
Part of a series
One of the forms of Śāstā, painted by Swaroop in one consistent style.
Matte cotton canvas
Printed on 300–350 GSM cotton canvas with a matte finish, so there is no glare under lamps or in a pūjā room.
Never cropped
The artwork keeps its original proportions, with a blank border on every side for stretching or framing.

The meaning within
A small presence.
A profound meaning.
Śrī Śāstā is the ruler and bestower of desired boons — dark and smooth-bodied, with a high jewelled crown and curly hair.
I seek refuge in the Lord Śāsta, whose body is dark and smooth, whose form is vast and adorned with various garments, who holds a red lotus and boon giving gesture in his hands, who wears a high jeweled crown and has curly hair, who is the ruler, and the bestower of desired boons.
