Upload the 13 images from \/landing-images\/ to Shopify:\n     Settings \u003e Files. Copy each CDN URL.\n  2. Find the block marked  IMAGE URLS  just below and paste your URLs\n     in place of each placeholder. Nothing else needs editing.\n  3. Paste this whole file into a CUSTOM LIQUID section on the product\n     template (NOT the rich-text description box — that strips \u003cstyle\u003e).\n  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------\n  No buttons, no links, no CTAs anywhere. Shopify's own Add to Cart does that.\n  Everything is scoped under #hc so it cannot collide with your theme.\n  All grids are CONTAINER-responsive, not viewport-responsive, so the page\n  reflows correctly even inside a narrow theme column.\n--\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- BUILD v5 · 2026-09-01 · all classes prefixed pvz- (no theme collisions) --\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"hc\" style=\"box-sizing:border-box !important; width:100%; max-width:1080px; margin:0 auto; overflow-x:hidden;\"\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n\/* ---------- IMAGE URLS — replace these 13 values only ---------- *\/\n#hc{\n  --img-cover:      url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/00-cover.jpg?v=1788100290');\n  --img-contents:   url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/01-contents.jpg?v=1788099547');\n  --img-divider:    url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/02-part-two-divider.jpg?v=1788099548');\n  --img-wordbyword: url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/03-word-by-word.jpg?v=1788099548');\n  --img-sanjpage:   url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/04-sanjeevani-page.jpg?v=1788099548');\n  --img-sanjart:    url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/05-sanjeevani-art.jpg?v=1788099548');\n  --img-sunstory:   url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/06-sun-story.jpg?v=1788099549');\n  --img-distance:   url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/07-about-the-distance.jpg?v=1788099548');\n  --img-variant:    url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/08-variant-note.jpg?v=1788099548');\n  --img-sita:       url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/09-sita-boon.jpg?v=1788099549');\n  --img-nothingbuy: url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/10-nothing-to-buy.jpg?v=1788099549');\n  --img-index:      url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/11-index.jpg?v=1788099549');\n  --img-portrait:   url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/8907\/3032\/files\/12-hanuman-portrait.jpg?v=1788099549');\n}\n\/* --------------------------------------------------------------- *\/\n\n#hc{\n  --cream:#FDF8F0; --gold:#B4884A; --accent:#BE3E1A; --ink:#241C15;\n  --muted:#6B5A47; --line:#E6D9C4; --deep:#1B1410;\n  box-sizing:border-box!important; width:100%!important; max-width:1080px!important;\n  min-width:0!important; margin:0 auto!important; overflow-wrap:break-word;\n  background:var(--cream); color:var(--ink);\n  font-family:Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif; line-height:1.62; font-size:16px;\n  -webkit-font-smoothing:antialiased;\n}\n#hc *,#hc *::before,#hc *::after{box-sizing:border-box !important;}\n#hc img{max-width:100% !important; height:auto; display:block;}\n#hc p{margin:0 0 1em;}\n\/* A theme forcing text-align:center on the description makes long lines spill off\n   BOTH edges, which is what clips the first words.
