The ideal season to perform this raag is in the summer time.
Guru Teg Bahadur ji bani is composed in this …the last raaga of the SGGSji.
Guru Tegh Bahadur ji,

Ang 1352:

Asks us to understand that wealth is like a dream so why are we so proud? Even the empires of this earth are like walls of sand. The body will perish.

Moment by moment yesterday passed ….today is passing as well…meditate on the Eternal,

So the inspiration of this painting are the Sand Dunes ….that are here today and gone tomorrow. It is a great analogy for the transient nature of our existence.

This painting came together fairly quickly….I was in class, I set out the paints, canvas and brushes and in a few hours this painting came came together….perhaps I was in the zone…or was it that I had been thinking about the Guru’s words for some time but there it was, by the end of class, this composition had come together.

The Guru wants me to reflect why am I so proud of the worldly goods? Of my worldly achievements? Moment by moment a whole life is passed…..

This world is an illusion…nothing that I have of this world shall go with me.

Guru advises me …. Meditate on the eternal truth
