When Lord Krishna bestowed divine Vision to Arjuna and graced him with the Vishwaroopa Darshana , Arjuna was awed, dumbstruck and overwhelmed by this Divine Cosmic Manifestation-The source of all creation and destruction. It was awe inspiring and and so petrified was Arjuna by the sheer Magnificence that he begged Krishna to return to his original familiar loved form which Arjuna could handle.

If we were to look at the Sun directly, we would not be able to bear its brightness and splendour and would be blinded instantly. The silver lining on a cloud, the peeping rays of light, the spider’s web, the dewdrops on the grass, the symmetry of a flower, the delicacy of a creeper, the golden sunlight through leaves, the graceful animal, the cycle of seasons are all images of the Universal power, showing Itself in versions we can tolerate.So stay in bliss friends.

Poshina - Ahmedabad - Gujarat - India

 

Garasia girl - Darbargadh Poshina

Poshina

 

About 18 kms from Ambaji in Sabarkantha district, Poshina takes one back to the simple beauty of traditional village life, populated by a captivating mélange of colorful tribal communities of the Garasias, Bhils and the pastoral Rabaris. Poshina is home to a tribal shrine where you find the staggering scene of thousands of terracotta horses standing in rows as offerings to the local goddess. Nearby villages have similar horses carved in reverence to her divinity. A visit to the homes of the potters who make these striking horses is an excellent glimpse into tribal culture.

 

In Poshina you find the Darbargadh Poshina, once a palace, and now a welcoming heritage hotel, with huge gateways, a massive dome, numerous pillars and arches, a pleasant courtyard, gardens, lawns and terraces, owned by the descendants of the Chalukyas, whose empire spread through much of Gujarat and Central India in the 12th century. You also find old Jain sandstone temples of Parshvanath and Neminath and an old Shiva temple.

The stuff fairy tale princesses are made of...

During a walk, through a window glass

This doll is aptly named, I will start with that. I love Isha, I'm a bit biased because of my heritage, but it is what it is. However, I don't have every Isha that has ever been made, I didn't even try to get all the Ishas out there. This one, though, I had to. She is a dream.

 

Love the white outfit for her. It makes her even more ethereal, yet accentuates her sultriness. Her face is flawless and in my opinion, she is the best Isha ever made.

 

As with all other Sacred Lotus dolls, Isha's accessories are simply amazing as well. Just wish she had a necklace as well, a jewel-studded choker to be exact, in true over-the-top Bollywood style.

Old School of Divinity, Cambridge, 8 Oct 2015

 

This is WORK IN PROGRESS.

 

At least it is better than Street View.

( Go to 52.207899, 0.118048 in Google Maps and have a look)

 

This was shot with a Sigma 10-20 and the verticals sorted in Lightroom, leaving just a touch of convergence.

Had planned to come back later when the sun had moved round a bit, but it clouded over.

 

It would be nice to get the whole of the front of the School of Divinity. It gets the sun mid afternoon, but this is the time of day for maximum clutter - table and chairs now encroaching from café to left. Maybe wait until depths of winter when too cold to put tables out. I can live with bikes and street furniture.

 

Then I may try a pano of several shots ...

Dog Rocks, Batesford

 

An amazing place, was lucky that there was noone else there as i'd heard that it is quite a popular area for the local photographers. Went on a ridiculously windy day, which knocked my tripod over with the camera attached - lucky nothing broke, but I learnt my lesson to hang heavier stuff off it. Was bloody freezing out there too... thermometer on my car read 5 degrees celcius...

This is the Kuan Yin Temple (观音亭) located at Banting, Selangor of Malaysia. It was a cloudy evening and right before it rains I captured these shots with an under-exposed and customized picture profile, I am glad they bring out some gloomy and spooky mood.

Nebulosus Severine in luminous glory.

In every breath, a universe unfolds,

Each atom a testament, ancient and bold.

In rivers that flow, in mountains that rise,

The divine essence, a silent guise.

From the flutter of wings to the stars' dance above,

All intertwined in a tapestry of love.

Vajrasattva is the priest of the 5 Transcendental Buddhas. His practice is one of purification through the realization that in your true nature, you were never impure. He is visualized in the foundation meditation practices of Tantra, with the aim of generating Bodhichitta, the cosmic will to enlightenment. He is represented in two forms, single and yabyum. He is usually white in color and sits crossed legged with a dorje (vajra) in his right hand with palm upward against his chest and a bell in his left resting on the left thigh.

"The progress of faith in those who are being created anew is as follows. Initially such people are without any life, as no life exists in evil or falsity, only in goodness and truth. Afterward they receive life from the Lord through faith. The first form of faith to bring life is a memorized thing - a matter of fact. The next is faith in the intellect - faith truly understood. The last is faith in the heart, which is faith born of love, or saving faith."
