Goddess White Tara with Seven Eyes Who Bestows Long Life on Her Devotees (Tibetan Buddhist Deity)

A manifestation of Chinese princess Kongjo and an important figure in Buddhism, White Tara is a female Boddhisattva in Mahayana Buddhist, also known as the ‘Mother of Liberation’. She is associated with longevity and counteracts illness, thereby bringing about a long life.

As shown here, White Tara Wooden Statue is always depicted as sitting in a lotus posture with the soles of her feet pointing upwards; the left hand is in the protective no fear mudra, and suitable forms a wish-granting gesture. White is considered to be the supreme color in many traditions as it is said to contain all colors within itself, so White Tara is also the most powerful of all Taras, as she embodies them all.

Goddess White Tara with Seven Eyes-Wooden Carving Tibetan Buddhist Deity From Nepal

White Tara with Seven Eyes-Wooden Carving From Nepal

Two lotuses can be seen emerging out from the left and right hands, wherein the one blooming from the former is the blue lotus of fearlessness and energy, and the latter one is the pink lotus of purity; sculpted with seven eyes (two each on feet, two each on palms and one on forehead) representing her vigilance on all human sufferings and a realization to the energies in and around her devotees, therefore, also revered as ‘The Goddess of Seven Eyes’.

Apart from spirituality and iconography, what attracts the most is the exotic use of colors in this statue and the distinctive backdrop heavily carved in spiraled vines and flower structures with tinges of gold to highlight the mains.

The Trimurti is a concept in Hinduism in which the cosmic functions of creation, maintenance, and destruction are personified by Brahma the creator, Vishnu the preserver, and Shiva the destroyer or transformer. His four arms indicate his all-powerful and all-pervasive nature. The conch ( Panchajanya) symbolizes that Vishnu is the Divine sound of creation and continuity.

Shivakamasundari- Parvati as the Beloved of Shiva - Large Brass Statue with Inlay work

In the Shiva shrines of South India, the wife of Mahadeva Shiva-Parvati resides as Shivakamasundari Parvati – the beautiful woman who is the sole focus of Shiva’s passionate love. Resonating with her descriptions in the Hindu textual traditions, Devi Parvati in her sculptures appears as a divine amalgamation of yoga (spiritual attainment) and Bhoga (material fulfilments). Maa Parvati’s standing images, similar to the brass statue we have here, are often related to her role as the prime audience to Shiva’s transcendental dance- Tandava. She remains gracefully poised and still as Shiva moves, enriched by the Shakti (energy) that is provided by Parvati herself. Enriching the actions of Shiva, enjoying marital bliss with Him in his presence, and meditating upon Him in his absence, becoming Uma for Maheswar (Shiva) when the world order requires the divine couple to procreate and becoming Kali when the universe needs them to wreak havoc, - Parvati is the...
