Vinadhara Siva

This particular form Siva is known as Vinadhara or “Veena Player”, the Lord of Music.  A title he borrows from Saraswati.  The pose is called is called “Veena Player” because Shiva’s two front hands are in the position they would be if he was playing a veena.  The veena is missing as it is in all Vinadhara sculptures.  In Shiva’s other two hands he holds an axe as well as a deer.  The deer shows how all animals see Shiva as their lord and revere him. The god is standing in elegant Tribhanga pose on a round lotus base in a frontal pose with all his well-built limbs correctly proportioned.  The sculptures elegance is displayed in the play of curves and angles that harmonize into a serene stature one can gaze at with reverence.  The simple loin cloth is suggestive of a piece of elephant hide.  With the minimalist loin cloth, ornamented belts and elaborate crown the sculpture manages to appear lavishly dressed.  The feet have each a course of 3 loose padasaras.  The toes have rings on the big and little toes.  Siva is known as the master of Yoga, Music and Dancing. He is very popular in the south by the name Dakshinamurti.  This statue is sometimes referred to as the Lord of Music form of Siva as Dakshinamurti. Not to be confused with the seated Dakshinamurti who is shown under a banyan tree enlightening attending rishis with one foot on mythical Apasmara crushing the ego of man.
