Embroidery & Drawing | Jaspal Kalra | Bhande Bahara | Exclusive Edition

Oneness of gender without prejudice is something Baba Nanak was vocal about. He questions as an expression of his views. It’s only the True Divine सतनाम who has not been created by a woman, so either one considers oneself above Him to disrespect a woman or respects her for creation of all graciousness in the world. भंडि जमीऐ भंडि निमीऐ भंडि मंगणु वीआहु ॥ भंडहु होवै दोसती भंडहु चलै राहु ॥ भंडु मुआ भंडु भालीऐ भंडि होवै बंधानु ॥ सो किउ मंदा आखीऐ जितु जमहि राजान ॥ भंडहु ही भंडु ऊपजै भंडै बाझु न कोइ ॥ नानक भंडै बाहरा एको सचा सोइ ॥ जितु मुखि सदा सालाहीऐ भागा रती चारि ॥ नानक ते मुख ऊजले तितु सचै दरबारि ॥ His question contextualises a woman as One source of all worldly activities.

This has inspired the artist to create abstracted artwork with Mohd Shaqib, Mohd Ubaid and Mehjabi to express the eternal magnificence with which Baba Nanak considers a woman.
