Prahlada Maharaja, while praying to Lord Nrsimha, said, "O my Lord, I am very much afraid of the materialistic way of life, and I am not the least afraid of Your present ghastly ferocious feature as Nrsimhadeva. This materialistic way of life is something like a grinding stone, and we are being crushed by it. We have fallen into this horrible whirlpool of the tossing waves of life, and thus, my Lord, I pray at Your lotus feet to call me back to Your eternal abode as one of Your servitors. This is the summit liberation of this materialistic way of life. I have very bitter experience of the materialistic way of life. In whichever species of life I have taken birth, compelled by the force of my own activities, I have very painfully experienced two things, namely separation from my beloved and meeting with what is not wanted. And to counteract them, the remedies which I undertook were more dangerous than the disease itself. So I drift from one point to another birth after birth, and I pray to You therefore to give me a shelter at Your lotus feet."

Srimad-bhagavatam 1:19:20 Purport

-----------------

Probably the first real, completed painting I've done since high school days. It was started a little over a year ago I think, and it's progress phased in and out a few months here, a few months there, etc. Finally got up the initiative to finish it over the past two weeks. (Sorry for the inconsistency of the image, the original painting is bigger than my scanner bed and had to piece it together :) )

Acrylic on canvas, 18" x 24".
