Yoga Narasimha

One of the most popular idols (murti) of Narasimha an Avatar of Vishnu is from the Chola period and is called Yoga Narasimha. This form is also one of the rare peaceful murti forms of Narasimha. Narasimha was an avatar of Vishnu who appeared on earth to slay the evil ruler Hiranyakashipu, who believed himself to be invincible after tricking Brahma into granting him a protective spell. Narasimha is venerated as an embodiment of valor and martial strength; here, he assumes the pose of a meditative yogi after successfully outwitting and slaying the evil king. Narasimha is thus praised as the bringer of peace and order to the world of men. As a meditative yogi, Narasimha assumed Vishnu’s four-armed form and would have carried Vishnu’s weapons—the discus (chakra) and conch—in his raised hands; his lower hands rest passively in meditation. Around his tautly crossed legs is a yogapatta or yoga strap. The yogapatta or yoga strap is widely used today by those practising Yoga.This Deity of Lord Yoga Narasimha is extremely powerful. He is the Lord of Yoga and as the God of Yoga He will protect you and your family. 

Narashima Tapaniya Upanishad composed by Prahalada is the ‘King of all Mantras’ in Hinduism. Such is his power.

My salutations to that Narasimha,

Who is Fierce,

Who is Heroic,

Who is Mahavishnu,

Who is Burning,

Who has Faces Everywhere,

Who is Half Lion and Half Man,

Who is Fearful,

Who is Death and Deathlessness.

This statue is 16 inches from base to top of the tallest flame and weighs 10 kg.  It is a classic example of the Chola Lost Wax Bronze casting process. The hundreds of hours of human energy in the form of wax molding, casting, rough/fine filing, and the final detail chiseling shine through in the completely unique face of this Siva Nataraja, truly one of a kind.  Nataraja’s right foot stands on Apasmara (ignorance personified).  - armed with dagger and a detailed tiny shield.  Shiva’s left foot is raised in dance movement.  A simple belt tied around his torso is shown flowing to his left and an erect Cobra sits on his right arm.  He holds Damaru (hourglass drum) in his upper right hand and Agnishikha (flame) in left.

He wears his hair as a crown, studded with stork feathers. His free-flowing hairs bear Ganga depicted as a mermaid on the right side and a snake on the left.  The male and female earrings in his ears respectively symbolize Shiva’s completeness.  The sculpture rests on a double pedestal of lotus and square.

Rishabhavahana Devar

₹175,000.00

Availability: in stock

This set, depicting Siva as a peasant and Parvati as the Devi is a detailed copy of the pieces on display in the Thanjavur Art Gallery.  The originals are considered superb representations of Siva from the early Cholas in the year 1011 CE. This set is another one of Metal Crafts masterpieces that can bring Chola History and understated elegance into your home without supporting the illegal antique trade. The word Devar refers to the fact that Siva is represented in human form with just two arms.  This depiction is the only Chola statue in which Siva is shown in human form. It is also unique in the display of the hair shaped into the form of a turban that is most obvious in the front view. As stated above the two arms indicate that this form of Siva is the human guise of a peasant. The right hand is positioned to rest on the head of his sacred bull (Rishabha/Nandi), which was not found with the originals, while the left hand is in katyavalampita-hasta.  With unrivaled grace and dignity Siva, as a peasant stands firm on his left leg, the right leg crossed with toes resting on the ground.  The Devi, Parvati, is in every way a fit companion for the aesthetic excellence of Siva.  She stands in tribhanga leaning towards Siva with her right hand in kataka and the left hand hanging like a cows tail, govala.  Her legs mimic the posture of Siva with a lesser bend of the knee on the right leg.  This posture is what differentiates this Parvati form from other standing depictions such as Sivakami.  Certainly, any Chola bronze admirer can see the uniqueness of this pair from any other depiction of the heavenly couple and would want them to grace their home.
