Dancing through time: Embracing the divine rhythm with this mesmerizing brass Nataraja statue. The statue is symbolic of Shiva as the lord of dance and dramatic arts. He looks calm, even through the continuous chain of creation and destruction that maintains the universe, that shows the supreme tranquility of the Atma. His legs are bent, which suggests an energetic dance. His long, matted tresses, are shown to be loose and flying out in thin strands during the dance, spread into a fan behind his head, because of the wildness and ecstasy of the dance.He dances within a circular or cyclically closed arch of flames (prabha mandala), which symbolically represent the cosmic fire that in Hindu cosmology creates everything and consumes everything, in cyclic existence or cycle of life. The fire also represents the evils, dangers, heat, warmth, light and joys of daily life. The arch of fire emerges from two makara (mythical water beasts) on each end.

This magnificent statue is a wonderful piece of art, crafted intricately on brass, the handmade design has so much detail and meaning for each detail.
