Pictures/paintings of gods
Namaste,
We all feel the great devotion emerge when we view certain pictures of our favourite gods in favourite scenes - to me, for example, Sri Rama closely hugging Sri Hanuman with a sweet smile on his face. I would love to surround my shrine with such pictures in a room dedicated for this purpose. I was thinking about it and had this incredible urge to ask everyone what or who (which god) they would like to have pictured doing exactly what? If not for anything else, this may give each of us a moment to reflect devotedly on our favorite deities doing things most dear to us and thus may be uplifting.
I would love for instance:
i) Rama with Guha on a boat sailing through Ganges.
ii) Rama welcoming and hugging Vibheeshana - both of these would convey a calm, pacifying message of brotherhood to me.
So if you have any picture/particular pose in mind that you would love to have your deity seen in, kindly share. (This is not just a Vaishnava thread).
