The ideal time to recite this raag is in the morning hours.
Guru Arjan Dev Ji

Ang: 713:
Know that power, wealth and pleasure are like shadows of trees….running after them in different directions, these pursuits are useless. Except for The Lord’s name… everything else is transient.

Intuitively this painting was to be about trees and shadows as well as a path through the forest.
I am lost in this forest of worldly distractions …..lost in the world of power, wealth and pleasure….. these thoughts surround me like trees in a forest…but there is also a path in the forest…..the path is the Guru’s guidance. I ask for the courage to stay in faith ….to stay on the path…… And to stay in devotion.
The light seen on the far side of the trees is suggestive of the divine light.
