Lord Shri Dakshinamurti

  • Sale! magnificent and highly detailed stone sculpture, carved from a light beige or sandy-colored material, possibly sandstone, depicts a serene Hindu deity seated in a meditative posture under an elaborately carved canopy. The central figure, likely a form of Shiva as Dakshinamurthy (the silent teacher of cosmic knowledge) or a similar guru-like divine being, is shown with four arms, symbolizing universal power and omnipresence. The primary right hand is raised in the Abhaya Mudra, a gesture of reassurance, protection, and dispelling fear, with the palm facing outwards. The primary left hand gently holds a small, round vessel or pot, possibly a kamandalu (water pot) or a pot of nectar, signifying spiritual purity or abundance. The deity's upper two hands also hold indistinct attributes, possibly a book or rosary, further emphasizing wisdom and spiritual practice. The deity is seated in a cross-legged, meditative posture (Padmasana) on a simple, organic-shaped pedestal or rock formation. An ornate crown or mukuta adorns their head, from which long, flowing locks of hair cascade down their shoulders. They are richly adorned with intricate necklaces, armlets, and bracelets, all meticulously carved in the stone, suggesting their divine royalty and status. The face exudes a profound sense of calm and introspection, with half-closed eyes gazing downwards, indicative of deep meditation and inner wisdom. Above the deity, an exquisitely carved canopy unfolds, resembling a lush, full tree, possibly a Kalpavriksha or wish-fulfilling tree, whose dense foliage of finely delineated leaves and branches forms a protective arch. The naturalistic carving of the leaves and the supporting tree trunks is exceptionally detailed, suggesting both the sacredness of nature and a tranquil, shaded abode for spiritual contemplation. At the base of the sculpture, several smaller figures are carved in relief, appearing as disciples or devotees. They are seated reverently around the central deity, some in postures of prayer, contemplation, or attentive listening, their gazes directed upwards, reinforcing the image of a spiritual teacher guiding his followers towards enlightenment. The entire composition rests on a robust, circular base. This sculpture, rich in symbolic iconography and master craftsmanship, captures a moment of divine teaching and spiritual tranquility. Its intricate details and emphasis on meditation and wisdom make it a perfect visual representation for an article discussing ancient Indian spiritual practices, the symbolism of Hindu deities, traditional stone carving techniques, or the iconography of a guru-disciple tradition.

A subtle urna, the auspicious dot, is visible on his forehead, centered between gracefully arched eyebrows. His hair is intricately sculpted in tight, swirling curls that sweep back from his face and flow upwards, forming a distinct ushnisha (cranial protuberance) at the very top of his head, symbolizing wisdom and enlightenment.

  • striking, full-length, eye-level photograph of a detailed reddish-brown stone sculpture of the Hindu deity Ganesha, presented against a clean, softly lit gradient background fading from light grey at the top to white at the bottom. The idol is crafted from what appears to be sandstone or terracotta, exhibiting a beautiful rustic, earthy texture and rich, deep carvings that highlight the intricate artistry. Ganesha is depicted seated in a relaxed, meditative posture, possibly Padmasana (lotus position) or Lalitasana, with his signature large, rounded pot belly circled by a prominent nagabandha (serpent belt). His iconic elephant head features large, fan-like ears, small, expressive eyes, and a gracefully curved trunk that sweeps downwards and then curls to his left, possibly reaching for a sweet. One tusk is notably intact, while the other is artfully depicted as shortened or broken, a characteristic feature symbolizing wisdom and the ability to overcome duality. He wears an ornate, multi-tiered crown, intricate jewelry around his neck and arms, and detailed drapery on his lower body, all meticulously carved. The deity has four arms, each holding symbolic objects. In his lower right hand, he holds a small, round bowl overflowing with modaks (sweet dumplings), a treat Ganesha is famously fond of. His lower left hand is raised in the Abhaya Mudra, a gesture of blessing and dispelling fear. His upper right hand clasps a broken tusk, representing sacrifice for knowledge and creative writing, while his upper left hand holds either an ankusha (elephant goad) or a paasa (noose), symbolizing control over desires and worldly attachments, as well as guidance. Behind Ganesha's head is an exquisitely carved Prabhavali or archway, featuring traditional Indian motifs and topped with a small, tiered chatra (umbrella-like structure), adding to the grandeur and spiritual presence of the idol.

To the left, Lord Ganesha is distinctly recognizable by his iconic elephant head, featuring large, intricately carved ears, a single visible eye with a gentle expression, and a gracefully curved trunk that extends downwards. He wears an elaborate, multi-tiered crown or headdress adorned with traditional Hindu motifs. Adjacent to Ganesha on the right is the serene bust of a second deity, often identified as Murugan (Kartikeya) or sometimes representing Shiva or Parvati in certain composite forms. This figure possesses a human-like face characterized by calm, downcast eyes, a subtle smile, and refined, delicate features. Like Ganesha, this deity also wears a magnificent, intricately patterned crown and detailed necklaces or chest ornaments around the neck and upper torso, showcasing the traditional artistry and symbolism. The sculpture is carved from a dense, dark grey stone, possibly granite or a similar natural material, with a subtly textured finish that highlights the deep carving and fine detailing.

  • large, intricately carved, deep forest green or jade-colored stone relief sculpture, showcasing exceptional traditional Indian craftsmanship and a powerful mythological scene. The central panel prominently features the divine Hindu couple, Lord Shiva and Devi Parvati (often referred to as Uma Maheshwara), seated majestically within an ornate, cusped archway with elaborate scrollwork and decorative motifs. Lord Shiva, depicted on the left, has a serene expression, an elaborate crown or jata (matted hair arrangement), and traditional adornments like necklaces, armbands, and anklets. He holds his right hand in a gesture of blessing or teaching (likely abhaya mudra or vitarka mudra), while his left arm gently embraces Parvati. His body is strong and muscular, characteristic of divine male forms in Indian iconography, with his legs folded in a relaxed posture. On his right, Devi Parvati reclines gracefully, her arm gently resting on Shiva's lap or shoulder, embodying feminine elegance and poise. She wears a similar intricate crown or elaborate hairstyle and rich jewelry, her form exquisitely rendered. Together, they symbolize cosmic harmony, creation, and the union of masculine and feminine energies. Above the divine couple, within the arch, Shiva's iconic three-pronged trident (Trishul) is carved, strongly confirming his identity. At their feet, their respective divine vehicles (Vahanas) are depicted: Nandi, the sacred bull, lies peacefully to Shiva's left, and a lion, often associated with Parvati in her warrior forms (like Durga), rests to her right. The entire panel is densely packed with supporting figures and narrative elements. The upper register of the sculpture is crowded with numerous smaller figures of celestial beings, Rishis (sages), Ganas (Shiva's attendants), and devotees. Many are shown in attitudes of reverence, prayer (anjali mudra), playing musical instruments, or performing celestial dances, creating a dynamic sense of a divine court or a sacred gathering. At the very top, a stylized Kirtimukha (a fearsome guardian mask common in Hindu temple architecture) is carved, often symbolizing protection and auspiciousness. The side panels and the elaborate, multi-tiered base are also richly adorned with more miniature figures, including narrative scenes, additional attendants, and intricate decorative motifs like floral patterns, swirling tendrils, and geometric designs, adding to the overall grandeur and detailed storytelling of the piece. The smooth, polished surface of the deep green stone reflects light subtly, highlighting the three-dimensional depth and meticulous detail of the high-relief carving. This stunning piece exemplifies traditional Hindu devotional art and serves as a powerful visual representation of sacred narratives, making it highly relevant for articles discussing Hindu mythology, iconography, ancient Indian stone carving techniques, or the cultural and spiritual significance of divine couples like Shiva and Parvati.
