The ideal time to recite this raag is in the evening time.
Guru Ram Das Ji asks for Lord’s protection….

Ang 975:
the 5 evils rage within …please have mercy on me.
Nanak has come to Your sanctuary ….save me, preserve my honor.

Let me share my thoughts for this painting….
The thought is about…. seeking the Lord’s protection.
Is there a war? …is it raging within?
Yes…..the biggest battles are those that are waged within.
This war is against the 5 evils within ….that are out of control.
this battle rages on…..
The shield is the Lord giving me protection.
The arrows are meant to subdue the 5 evils.
The choice of colors of the background …suggestive of a battlefield in the evening.
