About This Project

During the month of Kārtika one should worship the Supreme Lord in the form of Dāmodara.


Illustration for Dāmodarāṣṭakam verse 1:


namāmīśvaram sac-cid-ānanda-rūpam lasat-kuṇḍalam gokule bhrājamanam

yaśodā-bhiyolūkhalād dhāvamānam parāmṛṣṭam atyantato drutya gopyā

“To the Supreme Controller, who possesses an eternal form of blissful knowledge, whose glistening earrings swing to and fro, who manifested Himself in Gokula, who stole the butter that the gopis kept hanging from the rafters of their storerooms and who then quickly jumped up and ran in retreat in fear of Mother Yasoda but was ultimately caught – to that Supreme Lord, Sri Damodara, I offer my humble obeisances.”

Materials: Watercolor pencils on paper, size A3
