"Air, Water, Sky, Earth, and Fire, the Panchabhutas, become one, a scorching fire. The people on the road lose all charm from their faces, and seeing the reservoirs dry, elephants leave their pride. Forgetting their animosity, tigers rest under the shade of elephants. Such is the restlessness in nature, that elders advise against leaving one's home in the month of Jyeshta."
Kavipriya of Keshvadas inspired the custom of Baramasa paintings, one of which is presented here in the idiom of Kangra painting. The Nayika reminds the Nayaka of the troublesome condition of the world outside, urging him to stay with her. Combing the mood of nature with the condition of Nayika's heart, Baramasa paintings are a rare jewel in the treasure trove of Indian art.
