Prahara | Oil painting

Prahara is a Sanskrit term for a unit of time, or subdivision of the day, approximately three hours long. This is a theme that I have illustrated in my recent works, so I made eight canvases since the day is divided into eight parts: four praharas for the day and four for the night. In each canvas, one can find a glimpse of spiritual praharas. 0:00 - Prologue 00:58 - Prahara I 02:37 - Prahara II 05:13 - Prahara III 07:32 - Interlude 08:03 - Prahara IV 08:39 - Prahara V 09:38 - Prahara VI 11:13 - Prahara VII 12:19 - Prahara VIII 13:16 - Epilogue
