Devotion:
Devotion
simply means dedication. Dedication comprises of commitment - an arduous yet
burning passion to miraculously achieve what we desire..!
“Devotion”
brings to mind God, the Almighty, a spiritual energy with such extreme divinity
that one follows his blind faith and surrenders to the Lord.
Devotion is
you. Devotion is me. Devotion is us.
For a child it
is purely in studying hard, for a true devotee - in praying, for an artist in immersing
himself in the splash of colors, a farmer – in toiling hard, for the warkari sampraday
- marching all the way to pandharpur! It is oneness with God! It is apparent
manifestation of words, art, music, painting, and the beautiful chirping of
birds, a mother’s lullaby, and the serene beauty of nature!
An artist
dreams his paintings. He devotes time, energy and paints his dreams on canvas. The
nature poises for the painter and with his graceful strokes he paints her
serene beauty. Consequently, one can perceive that from Devotion springs up
ultimate uniqueness.
Devotion is
“bhav” - an expression. Expression is varied states of mind, like happiness or
sadness, religious observance or hatred, consistency in pure thoughts, words
and deeds. A positive vibe or a negative force all combines to form devotion
which finds its way through elegant brush strokes and vibrant colors.
Devotion is
“bhakti’’- Optimism, an intangible quality that shows the way towards ‘nirvana’
absolute salvation. Through profound dedication, one can attain self
actualization and can observe complete tranquility - outside inasmuch as within.
The holy monks from the great Himalayas create an aura of peace and radiance
whilst embracing utter devotion.

If we could
say it in words there would be no reason to paint! The emotions find their way
in paintings and mesmerize us in lively colors that truly placate us with a
zealous passion to paint.
Ultimately, adherence to one’s values and
morality, consistency in fair behavior towards all, feeling of gratitude and playing
with colors sums up DEVOTION!!!
