Description
This beautiful statue of Shiva has been personally hand carved for Siiren using rain tree wood. The wonderful detail is simply breathtaking. Shiva is usually worshipped as the Shiva linga. In images he is generally represented as immersed in deep meditation or dancing the Tandava upon the demon of ignorance in his manifestation of Nataraja the lord of the dance. Shiva's main attributes are the trident that represents the three gunas and the snakes that show he is beyond the power of death and poison and also stand for the Kundalini energy. The vehicle of Shiva is the white bull called Nandi (the joyful). He is often seated on a tiger skin or wears a tiger skin with the tiger representing the mind.
