Description

This painting is a depiction of the Vedic description of the material world which appears like a banyon tree which has its roots growing upwards and its leaves downwards. The spiritual world however is perfect and pristine.The material world is therefor seen as a perverted reflection of the spiritaul world and is seen to be the reason that we all struggle so greatly in this existence to find happiness because we chase after the illusion of the material world pleasures which are seen as the fleeting examples of real bliss and reward that awaits us in the spiritual world (heaven) with god or the supreme creator.

This painting was done as a commission for the International Society of Krishna Consciousness, in Cape Town to illustrate this concept for educational and preaching purposes. This painting original has been sold to a collector however digital copies are available on this site only.

Bhagavad Gita As It Is, Ch15:T 1

sri-bhagavan uvaca
urdhva-mulam adhah-sakham
asvattham prahur avyayam
chandamsi yasya parnani
yas tam veda sa veda-vit

The Blessed Lord said: There is a banyan tree which has its roots upward and its branches down and whose leaves are the Vedic hymns. One who knows this tree is the knower of the Vedas.
