The Power of a Million Suns (Protection Against Evils, Dangers and Adversities)

The five headed Hanuman depicted here is in his 'Bhimkaya' aspect. The golden body of the monkey faced god looks as powerful as the million suns. Two heads on either side of him are those of Narasimha, Garuda, Varaha and Hayagriva. Narasimha is believed to bestow fearlessness on the worshipper; Garuda denotes extraordinary power; Varaha puts an end to all diseases and Hayagriva destroys the demons. The worship of Panchmukha Hanuman is very beneficial and protects the devotee against all kinds of evils, dangers and adversities.

The tiled floor and the inverted lotus pedestal form the foreground against a black background. Besides the yellow body of Hanuman, the other heads and arms have different colors, making it an interesting chromatic composition. The upper end of the pata-chitra has a niche using various colors of the palette, counter-balancing the black background.
