My Gita by Devdutt Pattnaik, a paraphrased version of Gita, religious book of the hindus. This book has moved me many times but in chapter - ‘You & I withdraw in fear’ draws parallels between Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra and The Gita. The steps to attain tranquility of brain and discover fear and connection with the collective.
It consists of 8 steps Yama, Niyama, Asana, Pranayam, Pratyahara, Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi, going inwards with every step to un-crinkle the brain from the knots and twists caused by memory.
Excerpts from My Gita by Devdutt Pattnaik
While reading, with each step I could assimilate different animals know for their tendencies similar to the sutras. Upon researching more about the few animals, it was disheartening to learn that most of them were endangered. I felt the worst part was that I wasn’t aware. And was propelled to create these graphic posters.
The images were created using AI technology, DALLE.
