At the opening of the exhibition on March 27, 2016 in the city of Kyiv,
a Vedic prana-pratishtha ritual was performed over each of the 9 images
- charging the form with divine energy (the ceremony was conducted by
the priest Saishvararama (Olexandr Ukraintsev), Odesa). All the
paintings, as well as those present at this sacrament, received a
powerful charge of energy.
The eternal and unchanging law of the universe (Sanatana Dharma) states
that everything in the world is energy. All visible forms are just the
interaction of the five types of energy. Prana is the energy of life
that fills our being, every particle of space, life force, the power of
the Creator who creates. Living paintings are canvases filled with the
energy of life force. That is, each image created from the author's
experience, depicted in the picture, consecrated with the help of a
ritual, deeply interacts with the viewer, just as if one of the faces of
the Lord appeared before him, for example, Shiva himself.
The service of the image is a symbolic connection of the external and
internal, so we are able to learn to show love and devotion, the highest
human qualities embedded in us by the Creator in the image and likeness.
Such examples of reviving images of the Lord exist in all religions that
use a visible image. In the Christian tradition, they say that the icon
is "praying".
Shiva is the Destroyer of illusion, the personification of Cosmic
Mercy. He brings liberation and renewal to the souls who have fallen
under the power of Maya. Shambho means "The Magnanimous", "The Abode
of Joy" or "Bringer of Happiness". Lord Shiva Shambho - “who
promises you bliss”. This is friendly aspect of Shiva. This form
cleanses the house of unfavorable subtle energies, calms the mind,
expands consciousness and destroys egoism. Develops creative
abilities, especially literary and artistic.
Jaya Shiva Shambho Mahadeva Shambho!
Shiva has always been called Triambaka because he has a third eye. This means that his perception has reached the highest possibility. The third eye is the eye of vision. The two physical eyes are simply sense organs. What we call Shiva is nothing but the very embodiment of the highest perception. Yoga is not a religion, it is the science of inner evolution.
Shiva rose as a column of fire when both Vishnu and Brahma could not find his origin. The living beings in the three worlds could not bear the heat of column and at the request of celestial deities, Shiva cooled down as the mountain Arunachala. This picture mean the genesis of mixture of form and formless manifestation of Shiva.
The image of Shiva in a fierce aspect; embodiment of the military
anger. Virabhadra is a manifestation of Shiva - a warrior who is
called before the battle. It is impossible to defeat him, and with
his help, victory in battles is always gained. Meditation on the
form gives strength to the defense of Dharma (righteousness), the
strengthening of the will. The active begining in the revealed
beauty.
I want to present a picture for the Armed Forces of Ukraine
(contact me please who can transfer it to its intended
purpose).
Mahadev meaning great (maha) God (deva), "greatest God" or God of
the gods. If you have embarked on the path of Yoga, this means that
the moment has come in your life when you felt the limitations of
physical existence, you felt the desire to go beyond the physical,
you felt that even this boundless cosmos limits you. Yoga means
transcending the barriers of physical existence. Your efforts are
aimed not only at subjugating the physical aspect of existence, but
also at destroying its boundaries and touching a dimension that is
not physical in nature. You want to combine the limited with the
unlimited. You want to dissolve limitations into the limitless
nature of existence.
And the form of Shiva Yogeshvara helps on
the path of true yogis. He is the teacher.
Yoga Yoga
Yogeshwaraya!
Parvati (Skt. पार्वती, IAST: pārvatī "mountain") is one of the names
of wife of the god Shiva. It is a good and gentle form of Devi,
Shakti (that is, the female creative energy of Shiva). She is asked
for wisdom. She personifies piety, devotion to marriage, promotes
motherhood.
It is very good to declaim the mantra and
visualize Devi Parvati. Swayamvara Parvati or Parvati Swayamvara
Mula Manta is the most powerful mantra for overcoming the obstacles
associated with marriage.

Natesha or Nataraja is Shiva as Lord of the dance. The form of
Nataraja embodies the riot of life and the dance of the Universe,
which gave birth to itself from the Eternal Silence. The classical
arts are designed to bring this absolute immobility to man. Without
it, real art cannot appear.
He inspires real creators, people
of art. As well as scientists, physicists, all the discoverers.
Kali (Skt. काली, IAST: Kālī, "black"), also known as IAST: Kālikā (Skt. कॉलिंका) or IAST: Shyāmā (Skt. श्यामा) is one of the ten dasamahavidyas. Kali is a violent form of Shakti and appears as the destroyer of demons. Kali's anger is so terrible that it threatens the existence of the world. Kali is the protector of the gods and the giver of liberation. It symbolizes the cosmic power of eternal time. The goddess is asked to protect from the harmful energy of enemies, strengthen the fortitude, find a resource in order to overcome life's difficulties. Very powerful energy.
Shiva is consciousness, a stable principle, eternal and unchanging. Shakti is transformation, time, change. Thanks to Shakti, Shiva's consciousness can manifest itself in reality, take form. Shakti energy which drives the world. This energy is everywhere, it is prana. Shiva is superconscious, Shakti is prana, energy. Shakti is the building material of which the universe is built, but also the great illusion called Maya in which we live. Form is Emptiness. Emptiness is form... Shiva continues to dance the Tandava, causing the world to continue to develop until one day he stops, which will put an end to this world in order to give life to a new one. Shiva, performing his dance, connects with his wife Shakti and re-creates the world. A person needs both components - Consciousness (Shiva) and Energy (Shakti). "Shiva without Shakti is a shava (corpse)." And Shakti without Shiva is an insane, uncentered force, often self-destructive. Only when Shiva and Shakti merge, action, movement and creation become possible. This dance is about it. Think about this...
I draw yantras to order. The request is agreed with what to work with, colors, framing, size. Execution - oil, acryle, fluorescent paints is possible. The very geometric design of the yantra is created in such a way that it transfers the brain to a certain alpha rhythm. For example, focusing on the yantra of the goddess Lakshmi (with a frequency of 8 to 14 hertz, which corresponds to a meditative state) contributes to the activation of the right hemisphere of the brain and leads to the emergence of creative insights and sharpening of intuition. This picture depicts Sri Yantra.
