Graciously bestowing supreme wisdom on the sages around him and on the entire Universe, this icon of Shiva-Dakshinamurty is his aspect as “Medha” or “Gyana” Dakshinamurty.
Beautifed by the natural appeal of bronze and made in the traditional lost-wax technique, the statue is cast like a portable image of Dakshimaruty, completed with all his sacred attributes, with Shiva in the center smiling divinely.
A banyan tree forms the umbrella of Shiva, populated by serpents, birds, and a lizard. The tree is attached to the back of the rocky throne of Shiva, with the entire icon placed on a sacred lotus platform.
Shiva is adorned with an elaborate Jatabhara with a skull and crescent moon and sits with his leg placed on Apasmara, the demon of ignorance. The icon despite its small size, beautifully captures every detail of Shiva Dakshinamurty, making it a divine and asthetic depiction of the ancient Lord of wisdom.
