✍️ GitaWise T-Shirt Drawing Contest

Express the Wisdom of the Gita Through Art

Do you love drawing and find inspiration in the timeless teachings of the Bhagavad Gita? Here's your chance to turn your art into something wearable, shareable, and deeply meaningful.

We're inviting artists of all ages and skill levels to participate in the GitaWise T-Shirt Drawing Contest. Let your creativity flow and help bring the spirit of conscious living and inner strength to life through your artwork.

🎨 Contest Theme: Live the Gita

Your drawing should reflect the heart of the Bhagavad Gita — themes like mindfulness, duty (dharma), inner peace, courage, detachment, or devotion. You can draw symbols, characters (like Krishna or Arjuna), nature, abstract art, or original interpretations of Gita verses.

Selection Criteria:

- Submissions will be showcased for public voting (likes).

- Top entries will be selected based on a minimum of 100 likes on GitaWise Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/GitaWise/ .
