A Sacred Vision in Oil & Canvas

Ganesh in The Mandir is reproduced from an original oil painting by Désirée Paus Sterling — created as an offering of sacred art and healing intention, inspired by the sacred energy of the Penukonda Ashram in South India, a holy site built by the miracle healing Saint, Sri Swami Kaleshwar.

Painted in August 2025 on the eve of a grand Ganesh celebration, this piece captures the divine vibrations of a small Ganesh statue standing guard in the Mandir temple over a living Murthi of Sri Swami Kaleshwar's master, Shirdi Sai Baba. The rich color story and spiritual presence of this statue moved Désirée to paint it.

The original was lovingly donated to the UCBK Healing Center (Universal Church of Baba's Kitchen), where it graces their Healing Oasis in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri — bringing the divine presence and protection of Ganesh to all who enter. Prints of this work bring that same sacred energy into your home, healing space, or sacred room.
