This 2300 Yrs Old Painting is from the “Tikula Caves” near Gwalior, MP.
One of the earliest depictions of Hindu Gods “Balarama/Sankarshana”, “Vasudeva/Sri Krishna” and “Shakti of Vishnu/Ekanamsha”.

Though much old look at the intricate details this painting holds.
Let us look at them.
1.Balarama is holding Hala (Plough) & Gada (Mace).
2.Vasudeva is holding Gada (Mace) & Chakra (Wheel).
3.Shakti of Vishnu holding the “Chatra” (Parasol) over Vasudeva.

Note that the Gada of Vasudeva is slightly different from that of the Balarama.
What surprises me is the “Chatra” held by Shakti/Ekanamsha which is a defining element in the Hindu Iconography later.

These caves also hold numerable “Vyuhams” (Military Plans) painted around, of which “Chakra Vyuahams” are frequently found.
This beautiful “Bhimbetika of Gwalior” is on the banks of Parvathi River has no protection or care.
They lie in open and anybody can tamper the age old Heritage.

A recent thread of @TheSaveTemples reminded me to share this wonderful ancient Hindu Heritage with you all.
