Carried on the breeze
I intended to post another photo of this yesterday which would've coincided with Guru Purnima (a festival dedicated to offering respect to all the spiritual and academic gurus.)
This beautiful image depicts Laxmi (centre), both the consort and the divine energy (shakti) of the Hindu god Vishnu .... 'she who leads to one's goal'
Left is Ganesha, God of new beginnings, wisdom and luck and remover of obstacles.
Right is Saraswati, Goddess of knowledge, music, art, speech, wisdom, and learning (thanks to Two Cups Studio for the clarification and translation.)
I found this upside down among the plants in my front garden on Sunday evening. I'm the last house on my road so things sometimes get blown into my garden, though this is a more unusual and welcome find.
It's printed onto some kind of metallic laminate paper and needed some cleaning up.
Where it came from is a bit of a mystery.
I didn't post the original photo that I'd taken yesterday because I hadn't shot the level straight, and by the time I'd adjusted it, it'd lost some of the top of the circle and I was also very tired from working in school.
The flowers are a particularly beautifully scented Phlox, given to me by a late friend.
