Bhava and Bhavani- the father and mother of the cosmos are the most auspicious images in Hindu tradition.
Shiva and Parvati embody the divine pinnacle of masculine and feminine virtues that appear in these glowing bronze images, sculpted in classic iconography of Swamimalai sculptures.
Shiva as Pashupatinath stands in a firm pose, symbolizing rootedness and stillness, wearing an elaborate Jatamukuta, short dhoti, and a rare three-strand Yajonpavita (sacred thread).
Complementing his meditative presence is Devi Parvati, in an elegant Tribhanga pose, wearing a beautifully detailed dhoti. A union of Purusha and Prakriti (supreme male and female energies), Shiva and Parvati are the source of the world’s origin, sustenance, and annihilation, surrounded by a flaming aureole that symbolizes divine dynamism that originates from the coming together of Shiva-Shakti.
