A Ragini (musical melody) of Bhakti, Ragini Bhairavi in Ragamala paintings is depicted as a young woman, immersed in the devotion of Shiva, who is presented on the canvas as a Lingam, inside a shrine in the wilderness. On a marble platform, the Ragini sits with serenity on her beautiful face, dressed in traditional attire, with cymbals in her hands, singing a hymn for Shiva.
A sublime ochre is spread on the sky, as a symbol of Bhakti and purity that the Ragini embodies. In the foreground of this watercolor, a lake full of blooming lotuses is painted, which is often interpreted as the Manasarovara- the sacred lake that flows on Mount Kailash- the abode of Shiva.
