Dasavatharam Series Continue… No. 2.
kshitir iha vipulatare tishthati tava prishthe
dharani-dhârana-kina-cakra-garishthe
kes’ava dhrita-kûrma-s’arîra
jaya jagadîs’a hare
– Sri Dasavatara Stotra (Jayadeva Goswami, Gita Govinda)
On the wide expanse of your back as a pivot for churning
Rests the world, the Mandara mountain, a large scarlike depression created on Your back..
O Kesava! O Lord of the universe! O Lord Hari, who have assumed the form of a tortoise! All glories to You!
Done using shading pencils, black gel pen and watercolor for the BG.
