Solang Valley

Solang Valley Manali



According to legend Kulu was called "Kullutdesh" means end of habitat because locals used to think that after manali there is no land and kullu valley was protected by big mountains. One day locals went to lord Shiva to request a safe passage through big mountains so that they could see whats beyond those mighty mountains. So lord shiva whipped the mountains and created a passage. suddenly that passage was covered by blizzard and large chunks for snow. 

one can experience the same weather even today when we cross Rohtang pass. 

before Rohtang pass there is small road deviate  from highway and which lead us to Solang valley. beautiful but commercialised now. 

cheers.

Digital painting Part 3

I have been concentrating on my digital paintings for quite a while for two reasons, one I have become lazy doing proper pencil sketch and second Its very easy to do digital painting even in staying in the bed but I don't want to make It my habit of doing some technological work. Pencils have always been great and fun and soon I'll be producing another sketch.

Well lets concentrate on my current blog which is "Digital painting Part 3". The fort in the painting was done by me ( www.facebook.com/maniisart) long time ago and I have just given some digital touch to it. Please enjoy and share.

happy :digital painting: :)

The Gaze





ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ ਕਾਲ ਪੁਰਖ ਕੀ ਫ਼ੌਜ ॥ 
khhaalasaa kaal purakh ki fauj ||
Khalsa is God's Army
ਪ੍ਰਗਟਿਓ ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ ਪ੍ਰਮਾਤਮ ਕੀ ਮੌਜ ॥ 
pragattiou khhaalasaa pramaatham kee mauj ||
It's sustained by the Will of the Almighty
ਜਬ ਲਗ ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ ਰਹੇ ਨਿਆਰਾ ॥ 
jab lag khhaalasaa rehae niaaraa ||
While the Khalsa remains pure
ਤਬ ਲਗ ਤੇਜ ਕੀਉ ਮੈਂ ਸਾਰਾ ॥ 
thab lag thaej keeo mai(n) saaraa ||
I will give it all my strength
ਜਬ ਇਹ ਗਹੈ ਬਿਪਰਨ ਕੀ ਰੀਤ ॥ 
jab eih gehai biparan kee reeth ||
When they mimic the habits of others
