This is a painting of a Hindu Deity called Ganesh who is also known as the The lord of removing Obstacles.

His image can be found in India, Nepal, Srilanka and Indonesia.

 

And in every Hindu house one can found an image of Lord Ganesh and he is honored at the rites and ceremonies.

so i thought of making his image more colorful and dynamic where art lovers really appreciate.

Well, people who came to visit my art exhibition appreciated this painting.

Ganesh and Buddha are two common art works which is known to art collectors through out the world.

Thinks are changing. Slowly and steadily. After my solo art exhibition im getting lot of contacts.

Im so excited and tired too. Lot of work to do. No wasting time. Its almost past mid night.

I feel Ganesh is slowly removing my Obstacles..:)

Not getting much time to check flickr. But this is where i started to feel im an artist with all the encouragement from great artist and photographers. So i feel happy to post my art work here though im busy.

I have seen hard times..good times are rolling because of my hard work. I want to dream and i will always be dreaming to reach the sky.

65 Cromwell Avenue

This is a smaller, older, more anonymous building on Cromwell Avenue in north London, in that limbo land between Archway and Highgate.

 

The building bears a rather generously worded GLC blue plaque for Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. He was a founding ideologue of Hindutva or Hindu nationalism and is something of an intellectual hero to the more cerebral supporters of Narendra Modi's BJP.

 

Savarkar was and remains a deeply controversial figure. He was tried as a co-conspirator in the Gandhi murder trial and was acquitted....

Trishul is a group of three Himalayan mountain peaks of western Kumaun, Uttarakhand, with the highest (Trishul I) reaching 7120m. The three peaks resemble a trident - in Hindi/Sanskrit, Trishula, trident, is the weapon of Shiva. The Trishul group forms the southwest corner of the ring of peaks enclosing the Nanda Devi Sanctuary, about 15 kilometres west-southwest of Nanda Devi itself. The main peak, Trishul I, was the first peak over 7,000 m (22,970 ft) to have ever been climbed, in 1907.

Kalu Vinayak, where this photo was taken is a Hindu Shrine dedicated to Lord Ganesh at an altitude of 14200 feet. This is the view you get when looking towards Pathar Nachuni valley. You can also see the trail that took us to this magical place. Getting here is tough but the views you get of Mt. Nanda Ghunti & Mt. Trishul is mesmerizing.

Looking at the trail ahead leading to Mt. Trishul from Kalu Vinayak located at an astounding altitude of 14200 Ft which is also known as The door to Roopkund. This trail leads to Bhagwa Basa and from there on the final ascent to Roopkund begins. The journey just got tougher :)

Just back from an amazing expedition to capture winter landscapes at Spiti Valley and spot a snow leopard if possible.

The grueling trek in the snow and going down on a 70 degree incline with a sheer drop into nothingness were all worth it.

Thanks to Dorje Bhai's amazing home stay and help from Tenzing and Funsook who carried our equipment. It wouldn't have been possible without them.

Thanks also to Milestone Enterprise and Vinayak who went the whole nine yards with us!

One of the richest temples in India , this Siddivinayak temple is considered the most powerful Ganesha . I am going to Miss seeing this place too in Mumbai. The Ganesha Idol in this temple has the trunk facing right which is considered very powerful. My regards to Ganesha

Ganesh

 

Dans l’hindouisme, Gaṇesh, Gaṇesha, Vinâyaka, Gaṇapati ou Pillayar dans le sud de l’Inde est le dieu qui supprime les obstacles1. Il est aussi le dieu de la sagesse, de l’intelligence, de l’éducation et de la prudence, le patron des écoles et des travailleurs du savoir. Reconnaissable à sa tête d'éléphant, il est sans doute le dieu le plus vénéré en Inde et son aura touche même tout le sous-continent indien et l'Asie en général. Il est le fils de Shiva et Pârvatî, l’époux de Siddhi (le Succès), Buddhi (l'Intellect) et Riddhî (la Richesse).

I had an opportunity to visit Palouse one last time before I leave US and move back home. If you had been following my photographic journey, you might very well know that Palouse is one of my favorite places to visit to take pictures. Pictures from both of my previous trips have been very well received by a lot of viewers. So I would not want to let go of this chance of photographing the harvest season. The initial plan was for me to drive alone. When I was talking about this to fellow photographers Siddharth and Vinayak, they showed immediate interest to go with me. I was excited to have a photography company. Vin later put a FB message and asked for models to join our trip. Read more with additional pictures here - A MUST SEE

Veer Savarkar International Airport also known as Port Blair Airport, is a customs airport located 2 km south of Port Blair and is the main airport of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands of India.

Le bloc monolithique du sommet pèse 81 tonnes. Selon une légende locale, une rampe de terre de plus de 6 km aurait été installée pour monter ce bloc au sommet du vimâna. À partir d'un village appelé Sarapallam (=la pente de l'échafaudage) selon une technique utilisée aussi dans l'Égypte antique, d'après des archéologues qui ont, semble-t-il, découvert des vestiges attestant de cet artifice. Selon une autre hypothèse, c'est une rampe hélicoïdale en terre autour du vimana qui aurait permis cet achèvement.

 

Le temple est recouvert d'un grand nombre de sculptures tant à l'extérieur qu'à l'intérieur, ce qui est beaucoup plus rare. Certaines sont peut-être des ajouts tardifs de la période marathe. Les murs extérieurs présentent des sculptures avec les 108 poses de la danse classique de l'Inde du Bharata natyam .

 

Le Nandi, qui date de la période Nâyaka (XVIIe siècle) et qui est logé dans son propre mandapa, est en accord avec les proportions du bâtiment. Il s'agit d'un Nandi monolithique pesant quelque 25 tonnes, de 4 mètres de haut 6 de long et 2,5 de large. Il a probablement remplacé une statue antérieure.

 

Les temples secondaires à l'intérieur de l'enceinte sont des ajouts ultérieurs :

 

temple Periya Nayaki (période Pandya au XIIIe siècle)

temple de Subrahmanya, un des fils de Shiva (période de Vijayanagar).

temple de Vinayaka (période marathe).

 

Ce temple fut consacré en 1010 de notre ère par l'empereur Raja Raja Chola. À cette époque, 1000 personnes travaillaient dans le temple, dont 400 danseurs et danseuses, notamment de Bharata natyam. Outre les prêtres (brahmanes), on trouvait tout le personnel nécessaire à l'accomplissement des rites. Le temple était d'ailleurs important pour l'économie de la ville avec le commerce des fleurs, lait, ghee (beurre clarifié traditionnel) nécessaires pour les cérémonies.

 

Le temple de Brihadisvara est classé au patrimoine de l'Humanité de l'UNESCO au sein du bien intitulé « Grands temples vivants Chola ».

Ganesh Chaturthi (IAST: Gaṇēśa Chaturthī), also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi (Vināyaka Chaturthī) or Vinayaka Chavithi (Vināyaka Chavithī) is a Hindu festival celebrating the birth of Ganesha.[2] A ten-day festival, it starts on the fourth day of Hindu Lunisolar calendar month Bhadrapada, which typically falls in the months of August or September of the Gregorian calendar. The festival is marked with the installation of Ganesha clay idols privately in homes, or publicly on elaborate pandals (temporary stages). Observations include chanting of Vedic hymns and Hindu texts such as Ganapati Upanishad, prayers and vrata (fasting).[2] Offerings and prasadam from the daily prayers, that is distributed from the pandal to the community, include sweets such as modaka believed to be a favorite of the elephant-headed deity.[3][4] The festival ends on the tenth day after start, wherein the idol is carried in a public procession with music and group chanting, then immersed in a nearby body of water such as a river or ocean. In Mumbai alone, around 150,000 statues are immersed annually.[5] thereafter the clay idol dissolves and Ganesha is believed to return to Mount Kailash to Parvati and Shiva.[2][6]

 

The festival celebrates Lord Ganesha as the God of New Beginnings and the Remover of Obstacles as well as the god of wisdom and intelligence[7][8] and is observed throughout India, especially in the states such as Maharashtra, Madhyapradesh, Karnataka, Goa, Telangana, Gujarat and Chhattisgarh,[2][9] and is usually celebrated privately at home in states such as Tamil Nadu, and Andhra Pradesh.[10] Ganesh Chaturthi is also observed in Nepal and by the Hindu diaspora elsewhere such as in Australia, Canada, Malaysia Trinidad, Suriname, Fiji, Mauritius,[11] United States and in Europe[6][12] (in Tenerife).[13]
