During meditation I saw Lord Shiva sleeping. Next to Him was a huge crescent moon. Floating upward I peered over the moon and saw endless, infinite space. In this painting to depict infinite space I had Lord Shiva dreaming of Shiva ad infinitum. God dreaming of God. He who is beyond time, eternal, absolute, imperishable.

God is the best friend and kinsman of devotees. In this painting Bhagavan Sathya Sai Baba is surrounded by passionate devotees Mirabai, Rumi, St. Francis, Ramakrishna, and Radha. Angels hovering near toss heavenly blossoms on the gathering outside of His Whitefield Ashram (Brindavin) India.


Picture
Om Lord Varuna and Avatar Sathya Sai! In this painting I included Sathya Sai Avatar and the Queens of the Sea offering Him pearls.
I had a dream back in March, 2015. Before the dream David and I embarked on our vacation cruise to Belize and Cozumel. Unfortunately, we did not realize that we were traveling during Spring College Break. 1800 rowdy, horny college students accompanied us on our cruise. Yesterday evening, first night of the cruise, a group of male college students right next door to us, kept me awake with their loud swearing, drunken behavior and inconsideration for their fellow passengers.
I finally drifted off to sleep around 1am. In the wee hours of the morning I had this remarkable dream:
“I was preparing to go swimming in the ocean outside the ship with another woman. I looked up and saw two enormous portholes on both sides of the ship. Suddenly a gigantic dolphin leaped through one porthole and out the opposite porthole plunging back into the sea. A few people who were swimming outside also fell through the porthole and onto the deck, I hoped that they were not injured.
As I gazed upward at this strange spectacle I saw a mammoth Hindu God peering through the port hole. He had long shoulder length hair and his face was narrow and kind of long. His complexion was like a brown seaweed hue with greenish blue tones. There was a brass colored crown on His divine head. His body was strong, powerful and muscular. He wasn't angry but he did have a serious expression on His face – like He was checking up on us, investigating. Then the dream began to fade and I woke up.
This dream was so intense, the energy and strange beauty clung to me throughout the cruise. The word Varuna kept popping into my head, so when I arrived home today I googled Hindu Sea god and Varuna came up. When I saw the image it was remarkably like what I had witnessed in the dream, only He had hair to His shoulders. There are worlds and Gods of astounding splendor and power whirling unseen all around us. Om, Om, Om.

Picture
Lord Hanuman is the epitome of devotion, faith and surrender. His devotion to Lord Rama, who is none other than Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, is reflected in the incident where he bares his heart and Lord Rama and Sita are found seated within. In this painting we see Sri Sathya Sai Baba enthroned in the heart of Hanuman as well as Lord Rama, Sita, Krishna, Radha and in fact the whole Universe!!!


LORD VISHNU AND OUR LADY OF THE COSMOS

Picture
Lord Vishnu and the Egyptian Goddess Nuit are the central figures in this painting. Lord Vishnu is part of the Hindu trinity of Lord Shiva and Lord Brahma. He embodies the role of preserver and energizer of the Universe. He also has a part as creator since Brahma the creator emerged from His navel. The sun energy is also associated with Lord Vishnu.

The Goddess Nuit has dominion over the Cosmos and is usually seen stretched across the night sky, Her body pregnant with stars and planets. She closely parallels the Shakti/Maya principle of Hinduism. Together they form a blazing duo of the creative forces of the universe.
