Lord Hanuman Carrying a Mountain of Herbs to Sushena, the Ayurveda Rishi.
Legend
Lord Rama and the volunteer army cross the newly built bridge and enter Lanka, the kingdom of Ravana. A long war ensues.
Indrajit, son of Ravana, launches Shakti, a powerful weapon at Lakshman who is hit and critically wounded and looses consciousness. The Ayurveda Rishi Sushena prescribes a herb which is available in the northern Indian Himalayas in the
Dronagiri range further up Haridwar.
Lord Hanuman flies to the place. He locates the right mountain-range but can’t identify the right herb
known as Sanjeevani-Booti. Thus, he lifts the whole mountain and brings it to the place where Lakshman is lying unconscious.
Modern botanists consider plant ‘Selaginella bryopteris’ to be that herb.
This beautiful Ramayan picture has been entirely dot painted with cone requiring many hours of mindful focus,
patience and devotion. Dot painting is a meditative process which reduces stress and calms the mind.
