Karttikeya - The Warrior Son of Shiva Brass Statue

Karttikeya, also known as Murugan, Skanda, Kumara,and Subrahmanya, is the Hindu god of war. He is the son of Parvati and Shiva, brother of Ganesha, and a god whose life story has many versions in Hinduism. He is a philosopher-warrior, who destroyed evil in the form of the demon Taraka while teaching the pursuit of ethical life and the theology of Shaiva Siddhanta. After many exploits which proved his supremacy over the Gods, Kartikeya was made the general of the army of the gods and was married to Devasena by Indra.

The amazing brass sculpture exudes a boyish charm as it carves itself beautifully to represent the God of war, as he holds an artistic spear in his hands with a gorgeously shining peacock that stands with the illuminating and aesthetic floral backdrop complimenting the blessing-God, who is adorned in splendid jewels portraying a sense of magnificence and grandeur.

Lord Karttikeya was said to be one of the most beautiful-looking and handsome gods. He is often described as good-looking yet keeps on a serious face, quite unlike his happy-go-lucky chubby brother Ganesha. Kartikeya is also known as Shanmukha or the God with six faces. He is also regarded as the Guru of Shiva and the vehicle he rides is a peacock called Paravani. He is a God from the Vedic times, therefore, powers up the Hindus to Believe in their older faith.

According to the Siddhartha-Samhita, there are twenty-four avatars of Lord Vishnu . 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. The Chakra, "Sudarshana", symbolizes the purified spiritualized mind and represents the destruction of the ego.

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...
