A vision of cosmic balance and auspiciousness is the icon of Lakshmi-Narasimha, where strength and splendor unite.
Ferocious Lord Narasimha assumes a Saumya (gentle) form in this Panchaloha statue, in the company of his beloved Lakshmi, who sits elegantly on his lap, complementing his fierceness with her femininity.
Striking due to his roaring mouth, Narasimha is adorned with a Kiritamukuta crown, U-shaped Vaishnava tilak, sacred thread, and carries Shankha and Chakra, while raising his right hand in Abhaya, or a gesture of fearlessness.
The deities sit on a two-tiered lotus pedestal, symbolizing the origin and perfection of the cosmos.
The statue of Lakshmi-Narasimha is a part of several Vaishnava temples in South India, where they represent the ancient ideal of royal glory.
