The face of the lord in this sculpture radiates peace and fulfillment. The features are so well defined; these accentuate a feel of reality. The Lord is seen engrossed in the Jnana mudra. Jnana Mudra or Gyan Mudra is one of the most common yogic mudra used in meditation. In Sanskrit, the word ?Jnana? means knowledge or wisdom and ?mudra? means sign or gesture. It literally means the psychic gesture of knowledge or wisdom. In Jnana mudra, the thumb represents the Supreme Reality called Brahman. The forefinger represents the individual soul or the Jiva or our inner reality. The two fingers touching each other signify the oneness of Brahman and Jiva. In other words the Individual self is not different from the Supreme reality Brahman. The three other fingers represent the three Gunas of Nature. The middle finger represents Sattva Guna (Light, Purity, Clarity of mind, understanding, etc.). The ring finger represents Rajas (action, passion, movement, etc.). The little finger represents Tamas (inertia, dullness, inaction, confusion, etc.). These three Gunas have to be transcended to reach the ultimate reality. That is the philosophical symbolism behind this gesture.

Mythology says that once upon a time the gods and demons engaged in the activity of churning the cosmic ocean to extract amruta- the elixir of life.

Kali is the feminine form of Kalam ("black, dark coloured"). Kala primarily means "time", but also means "black"; hence, Kali means "the black one" or "beyond time". Kali is the Hindu goddess associated with empowerment or shakti. She is therefore called the Goddess of Time, Change, Power, Creation, Preservation, and Destruction. Her earliest appearance is that of a destroyer of evil forces. Kali's association with darkness stands in contrast to her consort, Shiva, whose body is covered by the white ashes of the cremation ground where he meditates, and with which Kali is also associated, as smasana Kali.

Carved here is a stone sculpture of Lord Buddha who was born as Siddhartha Gautama, a crown prince, but renounced his royal life, family and worldly pleasures at the age of 29 to go in search of answers for existential questions. He performed deep penance and one fine day, under the Bodhi tree he attained enlightenment and starting then, spent the rest of his life preaching the tenets of what is today known as Buddhism. His idols are placed in homes, offices and at meditation centers to spread the idea of peace and wisdom.

The story of Parushrama is one that can be found in many great Indian epics, including the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. Renowned as one of the 'chiranjeevis' or immortals who still roam the earth, Parushrama remains an enigma to most. This exquisite sculpture captures Parushrama's rage, known as his most characteristic expression, armed with his trademark battleaxe and sword, ready to take on the world.
The skill of the mastercraftsman is evident in the attention to detail around the face and the tension ably depicted in the clenching of the fists and the tightening of the torso. This masterpiece makes an ideal addition to your living room decor and can be customized according to your unique needs.

This finely crafted sculpture represents Hindu god couple (Dvitva in Sanskrit), Shiva - the destroyer, recycler and regenerator of universe and all life, and his consort Parvati, considered the mother of the whole universe in Hinduism. Fittingly depicting Shiva’s auspiciousness and his might as the god of gods, while balancing his personality with his iconographical attributes -- his third eye on the forehead, the snake Vasuki around his neck, the adorning crescent moon, the holy river Ganga flowing from his matted hair, the trishula as his weapon and damaru, the two-headed drum, the amelioration incorporated in the sculpture is par excellence. The serenity is underlined by the depiction of Parvathi through her gentle and nurturing personality.
Suggested Placement : In the puja(worship) room or in the living room.
Note : With respect to size, the statue can be custom made -- hand sculpted over a specific time frame.
