The Eternal Rest of Lord Vishnu
Behold a meticulously crafted representation of Lord Vishnu in his Anantashayana posture, also known as Padmanabha Swamy or Shesha-Shayi. This brass statue captures the divine repose of the preserver of the universe, depicting him reclining on the coils of the cosmic serpent, Shesha Naga. The intricate detail brings to life a powerful image, a symbol of cosmic order and the source of creation itself. Each curve of Shesha's scales, each fold of Vishnu's garments, and the serene expression on his face are rendered with remarkable precision.
A Window to Cosmic Creation
In Hindu cosmology, Lord Vishnu's Anantashayana posture is more than just a depiction of rest. It represents the state of consciousness between cycles of creation and dissolution. Vishnu, in his slumber, dreams the universe into existence. From his navel sprouts a lotus, upon which Brahma, the creator, is seated, ready to initiate the next cycle of creation. This imagery encapsulates the eternal dance of creation, preservation, and destruction, a continuous cosmic rhythm.
The serpent, Shesha Naga, upon whom Vishnu rests, is not merely a bed but a representation of eternity and cosmic energy. Shesha's countless heads symbolize the infinite nature of reality and the boundless potential of the universe. The posture itself suggests complete relaxation and detachment, the ultimate embodiment of cosmic awareness.

The statue's presence invites contemplation and a deeper understanding of the eternal principles it embodies.
