Baba Nanak, a poet, a philosopher, the enlightened, the Guru always glorified the supreme knowledgeable: One Divine Lord. His shabad or kalam are expressions about life philosophies of becoming one with the Divine through compassion, care, and love for everything around. Looking at oneself as part of Others, Nature and Universe is a experience of becoming One part of the Whole. Glorifying the supreme knowledgeable वाहेगुरु He mesmerized all with his compositions. He himself became a part of the One and the fragrance of love in His Bani has become eternal. Baba Nanak lives in His compositions it’s for us to find him and adore him.
 
The Real Name सतनाम- Sat Naam, is the formless, the nameless, the eternal One Divine whom we all give a form through our faith in Him. This series of flora in praise of the One Divine is a reverberation of affection for the soul of ONENESS of Baba Nanak.
 
This has inspired me to create this embroidered artwork with Mehjabi Ranjita, Ubaid, Imran to have self realization about the One Name behind all aspects of the Divine. Bani takes us into the world of Baba Nanak. This Bani with its full grace has been lovingly embroidered in zardosi and chikankari with various name of the Divine to express the faith in his words.
