Hello, I am new to the forums. I have seen the following image many times, but can someone tell me the title of the image as well as the artist?


Thank you kindly.

Vannakkam Ted: Welcome to these forums. That kind of search is tough. If you know anything about it at all, try googling. Suggestions might be Dakshinamurthy, or Balaji or Yogi along with the word painting. I wish you luck. You can also probably copy it to a disk, and take it in to a decent photo place and get a poster made for a few bucks. There's also the chance the artist is some humble being not wishing to have his name on it.

Welcome to HDF. Since this image appears in the "Dungeons and Dragons" community forum at http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?p=2308072, could it be part of a computer game?

No, I believe in that forum they just took the image from another online source, may of which are hindu / dharma sources online. I am trying to get a poster print of it, but would like to try and find out how to do so.

Thanks very much, yes I already looked at that and it is actually similar but not the same original image. Also, it was a painting that has already sold. I appreciate it none the less. The search continues...

Namaste Ted,

This picture was actually drawn by an ISKCON artist Pariksit Dasa for the Bhagavad Gita As It Is. It is called �The Mystic Yogi Leaves His Body�. It relates to Chapter 8 verse 25:

The mystic who passes away from this world during the smoke, the night, the fortnight of the waning moon, or the six months when the sun passes to the south reaches the moon planet but again comes back.

You can order a print from www.krishna.com

Hope this is of help to you.

Namaste All,

I think this picture means Yogi is attending Moksha
