Tracing Prana-aesthetics as the aesthetics of inner-light coded in the creeper-motif by the artists of Ajanta, this work emphasises decoding of the creeper-motif by Byzantine artists culminating into the frescoes of Sopocani done in Hellenistic-Byzantine aesthetics. Comparisons of various aspects are investigated to substantials the thesis that Prana-aesthetics transfigures at Ajanta but transubstantiates at Sopocani.
