The vel is to Karttikeya or Murugan what the trishoola is to Shiva, His father. It is the spear presented to Lord Karttikeya by His mother, Devi Uma. According to the Skandapurana, it is what empowered Him to defeat Asura Supradman in battle.

The vel sculpture that you see on this page comes with its own stand. It is a complete bronze composition with three, lotus-engraved tiers. On the head of the vel is engraved the typical Shaivite tilaka, its piercing structure seemingly cradled in an ample lotus bloom.

Poised in a corner of your poojana-kaksha, this would make an auspicious addition to your home or office temple. It will serve to ward off tamoguna and evil, and be the harbinger of dharma, sattvaguna, and peace in your space.

A Symbol of Divine Power: The Vel of Kartikeya

This exquisite 12-inch bronze statue of Kartikeya's Vel is a testament to the artistry and spiritual significance of Hindu iconography. The Vel, a sacred spear, is the primary weapon of Lord Kartikeya, the son of Lord Shiva and Parvati, and a deity of war, victory, and youthful energy. This intricately detailed piece captures the power and majesty associated with this divine symbol. The Vel's design incorporates the Trishul (trident), a potent symbol of Shiva, representing the three fundamental qualities of creation, preservation, and destruction. Its presence on the Vel further emphasizes the powerful lineage and divine authority of Kartikeya. The craftsmanship is exceptional; every curve, every detail, speaks to the dedication and skill of the artisans who created this piece. It's more than just a statue; it's a piece of living history, imbued with ancient stories and devotion.

Mythological Significance and Cultural Context

In Hindu mythology, Kartikeya's Vel is not merely a weapon; it's a symbol of unwavering righteousness and the triumph of good over evil. Legends recount Kartikeya's vanquishing of the demon Tarakasura, who was invincible to all but a divine weapon. This Vel was that weapon, forged in the celestial fires and bestowed upon Kartikeya by his parents, embodying divine power and the strength to overcome any obstacle. The Vel is often depicted in temples and during religious ceremonies, representing the victory of dharma (righteousness) and the protection of devotees. Its presence is a reminder of courage, strength, and the power of faith. The intricate carvings on this particular Vel showcase the rich tapestry of Hindu symbolism. The detailing is meticulously crafted, each element carefully chosen to tell a story and invoke a sense of awe.

A Masterpiece of Bronze Casting

This bronze Vel is not just a functional religious item but also a beautiful work of art. The rich, golden hue of the bronze reflects the light beautifully, adding to the statue's inherent radiance. The meticulous detail work on the Vel's leaf-like top, the shaft, and the intricately designed base showcases the advanced metalworking techniques used in its creation. The weight and feel of the piece speak to its quality, promising a lasting presence in any home or temple. The accompanying stand ensures the Vel remains upright and readily visible, enhancing its spiritual impact. Its elegant design complements the Vel’s ornate details, creating a cohesive and harmonious piece. This statue is a testament to traditional Indian craftsmanship, an heirloom-quality piece you'll cherish for years to come.

A Sacred Addition to Your Puja Space

This 12-inch bronze Vel statue is the perfect addition to any home altar or puja room. Its presence will infuse your space with a sense of serenity, power, and spiritual strength. The statue's size makes it ideal for both intimate personal worship and larger communal prayers. The Vel's enduring symbolic meaning makes it a powerful focal point, inspiring devotion and providing a connection to ancient Hindu traditions. Whether you are a devout follower of Kartikeya or simply appreciate the beauty of religious art, this Vel is a treasure you will be proud to own and display. Bring a touch of divine grace and spiritual energy into your life with this stunning bronze masterpiece.
