Lord Shiva
in the Abhaya Mudra, holding the Kamandala and accompanied by his devoted
vehicle, Nandi.
This exquisite depiction captures the essence of Shiva's boundless compassion
and his role as both the creator and the destroyer, all while surrounded by the
steadfast presence of his beloved Nandi. Lord Shiva's
form exudes serene authority, his raised hand offering the Abhaya Mudra, a
gesture of fearlessness and protection. His other hand holds the Kamandala, a
vessel symbolising sustenance and the divine elixir of life. Nandi, the sacred
bull and Shiva's loyal companion, sits steadfastly by him.
An Auspicious Confluence: Lord Shiva and His Divine Steed
This exquisitely crafted brass statue captures the serene yet powerful essence of Lord Shiva, the Destroyer and Transformer, seated in quiet contemplation. Adorned with intricate details, from the matted locks cascading down his shoulders to the serpent coiled around his neck, this representation embodies the divine yogi in his tranquil aspect. The striking contrast of the silver-toned brass with the gleaming gold accents highlights the richness and sacredness of the deity. Lord Shiva is a principal deity in Hinduism, revered as the Supreme Being within Shaivism. He is known by many names and holds diverse roles, symbolizing the cycle of creation, preservation, and destruction. His divine consort is Parvati, and they have two sons, Ganesha and Kartikeya. Shiva's meditations are said to bring about the dissolution of the universe, clearing the way for new beginnings. The third eye on his forehead signifies his profound wisdom and ability to perceive all things. The crescent moon adorning his hair represents his dominion over time, and the river Ganga flowing from his locks symbolizes purification and life.The Steadfast Companion: Nandi, the Bull
Beside Lord Shiva sits Nandi, his faithful vahana (vehicle) and devoted attendant. Nandi, often depicted as a white bull, is a symbol of strength, loyalty, and dharma (righteousness). It is said that Nandi is the gatekeeper of Shiva's abode, Kailash, and that one must seek his permission before approaching the Lord. His presence beside Shiva underscores the importance of humility and devotion in approaching the divine. The serene posture of Nandi mirrors the peaceful demeanor of Shiva, creating a harmonious tableau that speaks of balance and spiritual grounding. The bell adorning Nandi's neck signifies auspiciousness and is often rung during prayers to announce the presence of the divine.Artistry from the Heart of India
This statue is a testament to the rich heritage of Indian craftsmanship. Meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans, each element is imbued with devotion and precision. The use of brass, a metal revered in Hindu traditions for its purity and durability, ensures that this divine depiction will last for generations. The contrasting finishes, achieved through traditional metalworking techniques, lend a unique depth and visual appeal to the piece. Originating from India, this artwork carries with it centuries of cultural and spiritual significance, making it not just a decorative item, but a sacred object of reverence and artistic appreciation. This piece is ideal for placement in a home altar, meditation space, or as a statement piece in any room, inviting peace, spirituality, and divine grace into your surroundings.Nandi: The Symbolic Representation of Strength and Devotion in Hindu Mythology
Nandi is the guardian deity of Kailash, the abode of Lord Shiva.
The statue of Nandi, the Bull, is generally seen in a sitting
posture on a raised platform with discipline and calmness at the
entrance of the temple of Lord Shiva as the guard or doorman. He
patiently waits for the Lord while gazing at the sanctum,
demonstrating that individual souls should always be focused and
surrendered to the Supreme Lord in all circumstances, without
having any material desires. He symbolizes loyalty, truth, and
righteousness, thus, preserving Dharma. Watchfulness and
virility are the most important qualities of the Bull, that make
him the perfect vaahan for Lord Shiva, the destroyer of the
material world, to ride. The alertness of Nandi tells us the
importance of being in the present moment (mindfulness). He is
the head of all the attendants (Ganas) of Lord Shiva and is also
considered to be the guardian of four-legged animals.
Having a round body, a hump appearing as a huge mountain, and heavy shoulders signify his strength and capacity to bear a heavy load. Being very dear to the Lord, the divine Bull is always decked with fascinating ornaments on his back, neck, and sharp horns.

What is the significance of Nandi?
Nandi is the chief of 18 Siddhas and is considered the granter of boons to the devotees, and also symbolizes justice, faith, and purity. His mind completely absorbed in the service of Mahadeva depicts that he is the timeless wisdom and the path to the Absolute Truth, which means the Guru within. Without the mercy of the Guru, one cannot receive the grace of the Supreme Lord. Since Nandi is the eternal servant of Lord Shiva, one who tries to come closer to Lord Shiva and take his shelter, he should approach him by pleasing Nandi first.
Why does Nandi sit in front of Shivling?
Nandi is always depicted sitting outside the sanctum of Lord Shiva, facing the Lord. He patiently waits for his master outside the temple as if ready to serve the Lord whenever he wants his service. This shows how Nandi always remains absorbed in the thoughts of Lord Shiva and is eager to please his master. A practicing devotee can learn from the attitude of Nandi that the only qualification needed to please the Supreme Lord is his sincerity and dedication to serve Him in all circumstances.
Is it good to keep Nandi statue at home?
Lord Shiva is very dear to Nandi and similarly, Nandi is very dear to Lord Shiva. Keeping the statue of Nandi at your home altar means attracting the mercy of Lord Shiva in your life. It will bring all fortune and auspiciousness. However, keeping the statue of Nandi alone may not fulfill the ultimate purpose. Nandi, being an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva, does not like to stay in a place where there is no worship of the lord. Thus, if you want to please Nandi, you should keep his statue along with the deity of Lord Shiva (Nandi gazing at the lord).Products related to this item
