The artist in this painting has painted the last rites of a Hindu. The painting is of cremation ground. A pier is burning and a man is thoughtfully reading the ultimate truth, “Rama Naam Satya Hai” (the name of Ram is the truth). The Ram being referred to might be the divine hero of the Ramayana (Saguna Ram) or the formless divinity (Nirguna Ram). The man is young with shaven head and sharp features. He is wearing white garments and a small rudhraksha neck chain. He is holding a long and strong wooden stick with his two hands and resting his neck on it. He is looking on the writing very thoughtfully. Indian philosophy thinks that all motions are circular. The earth revolves; seasons revolve even life moves in a circle. Where will life stop if it goes on expanding and does not return to the point of death? In circular process, life will pass through childhood, youth and old age and return to unmanifested original source from where it began its journey. Awareness is the only solution to bridge this momentary separation from the truth that all living being are one with God. Man should move towards liberation from all that binds him to the worldly pleasures. A match box is kept by the side of the man. The artist wants to convey to the viewer that such a large pier is burnt down to ashes by just a small head of a match stick. There are other articles in a small basket with a small pitcher and white cloth. The artist has mirrored two opposites in this same painting like fresh bright light red yellow sky and the dull grey blue smoke. The lifeless logs changing to charcoal and new red leave growing on a tree nearby. There is a large water body and there is also small pitcher of water kept near the pier. Two buffaloes are seen enjoying in the water, they represent the vehicle of god Yama; the carrier of the soul. What the humans fails to understand is the meaning of “Rama Naam Satya hai”. For ordinary man death is dread and sadness but the body doesn’t go into nonexistence, it integrates itself into elements. The soul that resides in human being does not go to nonexistence either. As it is said in Bhagavat Gita that there was never a time when supreme conciseness did not exist, nor will be a time when it will cease to exist. The very word human “being” tells us that it will always be, it is not human “been”. All creatures are an eternal being living temporarily in their respective body. The wise are not deluded by death, it is just leaving the world of physical pain and going to the higher plane at the will of God, and God knows what is best.
