Embrace the divine unity with our Lord Subramanya sculpture, accompanied by consorts Devasena and Valli, a harmonious creation through Madhuchista Vidhanam in Swamimalai's Panchaloha Bronze. This artwork beautifully portrays the warrior deity with his consorts. Beyond its artistic allure, the sculpture embodies the Hindu philosophical concept of 'Conjugal Bliss,' symbolizing the harmonious balance in cosmic relationships. According to a belief, Amuda Valli and Sundara Valli emerged from Lord Vishnu's two eyes. They subsequently undertook great penance to marry Muruga or Lord Subramanya. Lord Vishnu acknowledged their penance.

 

Amuda Valli was born as Devasena in heaven and adopted by Indra. Sundara Valli was born as Valli to a tribal chieftain on Earth. Both of them got married to Lord Muruga, and the trio became a symbol of marital harmony. Devasena sits on Muruga's left and bestows celestial happiness on followers. Valli sits on the right and bestows serenity and wealth on devotees. In this statue, Lord Subramanya is seen with a serpent and a peacock, known as his vehicle.

 

The serpent symbolizes Lord Shivas' blessings upon him. The consorts hold a lotus, symbolizing their patronage overgrowth and fertility. The lost-wax technique intricately details the divine family, inviting you to connect with the divine energy that radiates love and unity.

The Divine Assembly of Lord Kartikeya

This magnificent bronze ensemble captures a pivotal moment in Hindu mythology, presenting Lord Kartikeya, also known as Murugan or Subramanya, flanked by his divine consorts, Devasena and Valli. Crafted using the ancient Madhuchista Vidhana, or lost-wax casting technique, in the renowned bronze-making hub of Swamimalai, this statue embodies centuries of artistic tradition and spiritual devotion. The Panchaloha, a sacred alloy of five metals, imparts a lustrous sheen and enduring strength to the figures, imbuing them with an aura of divine permanence. Lord Kartikeya, the commander-in-chief of the celestial armies and the god of war, is depicted in his majestic form. His multiple arms, characteristic of many Hindu deities, are poised in gestures of blessing and power. He is often associated with the peacock, his vahana (mount), which is subtly hinted at in the iconography. The vibrant stories of his birth, a divine intervention to combat the demon Taraka, and his subsequent leadership in epic battles, are etched into the collective consciousness of devotees. He represents courage, discipline, and the triumph of good over evil.

The Radiant Consorts

To his sides stand the two beloved consorts, Devasena and Valli, each radiating their own unique grace and significance. Devasena, the daughter of Lord Indra, represents divine power and celestial blessings, often associated with prosperity and auspiciousness. Valli, a human princess raised by a hunter, symbolizes devotion, purity, and the earthly connection of the divine. Their presence alongside Kartikeya signifies the harmonious union of divine and earthly realms, and the multifaceted nature of divine love and partnership. The intricate detailing of their garments, jewelry, and serene expressions speaks to the skilled craftsmanship and deep understanding of the divine feminine that informs this exquisite artwork.

A Legacy of Craftsmanship and Devotion

The art of lost-wax casting, perfected over millennia, is a testament to human ingenuity and dedication. Swamimalai, a village in Tamil Nadu, India, has been a cradle of this art form, preserving the techniques passed down through generations of artisans. The Madhuchista Vidhana method involves creating a clay core, which is then covered with wax to sculpt the intricate details. This wax model is then encased in another layer of clay. When fired, the wax melts away, leaving a hollow cavity into which the molten Panchaloha is poured. The subsequent chiseling, filing, and polishing reveal the breathtaking artistry of the final piece. This statue, a culmination of such meticulous effort, is not merely an object of art but a vessel of spiritual energy, designed to inspire devotion and bring auspiciousness to any space it graces. The divine figures, frozen in a moment of eternal grace, invite contemplation and offer a tangible connection to the rich tapestry of Hindu philosophy and mythology.
